Well, here’s another one in progress. It’s an old Fujimi kit of the Jiotto Caspita that I dug out of the garage over the weekend. It was basecoated years ago so it is not perfect in some spots. Just cleared and polished it over the last few days. The Caspita was touted as the ‘F1 car for the road’ and was designed and built by a Japanese company called Dome for Jiotto. This was in 1988!! It originally ran a Subaru flat 12 but later, this was replaced with a Judd V10. Anyhoo, I also threw the suspension together for the mock up (still needs to be painted though). Still a lot to do but hopefully have it done in the next couple of weeks. I also have uni assignments due so forgive me if it’s not.     As always, let me know what you think, I always appreciate the feedback. Josh.  |

Hi guys, Thanks for the comments. A little more progress for you. Started on the interior yesterday and got the red done. Will hopefully have the black finished by this arvo.   Also got the wheels painted. Went to the LHS to get paint and didn’t realise that Tamiya did a titanium gold spray now. Just the colour I was looking for…   Hopefully have shots of the finished interior by tonight. Josh. |

Hi guys, Finished painting the interior the other day but didn't get a chance to post. I still have to detail it and add the decals.    Got distracted by something else over the weekend...   Skip, as far as I know, they only made one prototype so not many people have ever heard of it. I'll admit I found it trawling through eBay years ago and that was the first I knew of it. Cheers, Josh. |
