| description | I am becoming more and more facinated by the RM's.. I like the very nice chassis of the Can-Am Lola (just finished that as well), but I like the body of the Datsun over the Lola body.
This car became one after mating a very nice chassis I got from Rcracepete with a NIP re-re bodyshell from Renken2000.
The painting of the shell was a nightmare, masking, masking, and masking again... It came out nice, so I think it was worth the effort.
The chassis was stripped, cleaned and rebuilt. It needs new wheels, no doubt, but I could not wait for them The chassis is built for 6V battery, which is nice for a change.
Thanks for looking, and comments welcome!

Thank you all for the nice comments. LamboDave: I have used Tamiya PS1, 2 and 4 paints (white, red and blue).
Very nice finish - This must be one of the more difficult Lexan bodies to paint - and you made it look easy!
You have done a GREAT Job - I've got one waiting to be done. What paint codes did you use, as it looks perfect in these colours ?
Lovely job!
Good work Lars....this is a very nice vitange one!
