Great photos, one thing I noticed though, the poor Sand Scorcher looks a bit neglected, missing one headlight lens and one wing mirror !

Can't be as it has grey bumper. Also other cars in the museum are not in great shape and/or not kitbox. Thanks Yangtao though for sharing, especially appreciate the photos of the much rarer old static kits and slot cars.

Cheers

You're right, the decal arrangement appears to be the one specified in the build manual for the red and yellow paint job.

Thank you guys for taking a look

I noticed also these RC cars displayed in the museum were not well taken care of, especially from the way the place the cars without supporting devices.

The shooting condition was pretty sad, I was along in the room in a Monday morning, they turned on the minimum illumiation only and my poor Nikon 959 was not a proper camera (plus my very limited skill) either...

During the coming Shizuoka show this place will be very crowded, I had the best shot I suppose.

Do visit the exhibition Hall and show room, too
