Volare models on the workbench

[80mirada]

Since cooler weather is coming, and the Mirada is still in storage, I am back at the model bench. Round 2 rerealeased the 1980 Fuzz Duster Volare kit in July, and I recently picked one up. The new release has Road Runner decals and nicely printed GT Radials. I added a Super Pak flare set.

The original issue 77 will be following the 80 on the bench in the near future. The flares on the 80 are a resin cast set by Ma's resins, very good quality.

Ma's Resin still in business?How long ago did you get the wheel flairs?Looks cool,What color are you painting it?

I have had them about 4 years, last I knew he was still producing I need to find his info again as I need at least one more set.

The 80 is going to be British Racing Metallic Green with a white interior

The 80 is painted, but there are issues.
