Re: 1972 Lotus Europa
It looks really good. The paint is perfect. Plus I like the engine and trunk detailing. I like the way the tub is removable so you can see the engine detail. Are those the brake master cylinders back there? Is this the Tamiya kit? I remember I used to see these cars on the road in the 60's and 70's.

Re: 1972 Lotus Europa
Thank you. Yep, a Tamiya kit. Two brake cylinders, one for the front and one for the back. I did have to invert one corner of the tub because the cylinders I plumbed up were just in the way.
I have the slightly modified newer release to do on the bench.
The references you can find on the net really help along with this dying hobby.

That's great that you were able to find this information. When I start a model I always try to find good photos of it for reference. Quite a few times I find them at some car sale site that has a lot of photos outside, inside, under the hood, etc. I just really do a search on the make/model of the car.
