Sometimes, you just gotta do something crazy. These are the first set of photos with more to come tomorrow.

Not something crazy.... something expensive. Enjoy, Marlowe. It looks fantastic.

As beautiful as it looks assembled.....

It'd be a shame to hide all that detail.
You should buy another one and display both ways. LOL

I see the same Frankenstein stitch. I'm sure Exoto has an explanation.

I had a similar thought, Richard. Find a way to show it in a big, dedicated case with enough.....

...room to display the rolling chassis with the complete body right next to it. Congrats on the big score, Marlowe!

That's 'cause Exoto has a little 1/18 scale guy who takes each one of these out for a test drive....

before it's shipped. He scuffed the upholstery getting in and out of the car. Grin

Yep, I'm pretty sure I've decided to display it with the body removed.

It's more than "scuffed." It is damaged. ๐Ÿ™ I'll try to correct the issue myself.
