Model Maker Margate

Firstly the wheels are one of this kits biggest lets downs. Spokes are too thick and too few. The original cars had three rows and 76 spokes the kit two and 38!! Worse than this in terms of accuracy the tyres fitted to the team car where period correct dunlop block style tyres however the ones on the kit are the later road going comfort dunlop tyres which again are not contemporary or period correct

As wheels are on most car builds in real life and model making statement pieces which often make a build it’s important to get these items right from the beginning.
