First I want to thank a few friends for selling me the new parts: Loaded (Mercedes C-11 chassis), Sandman (green A-parts), JR-RC (body) and Crash Chris (Wheels).
A few moments of sunshine today so I quickly got my camera.
Well, here it is! I think I can say it's pretty acurate...There are still some small things to be done but I didn't want to keep you guys waiting any longer...Enjoy!
You can follow the link at the bottom as I added a few more pics ('Behind the scenes III'). Here's a very useful link for details of the Mazda 787B: http://asmic.com/collect/787b.htm

Wow, the standard 787B is already such a pretty car, but this is truly masterful!
LOL Dee ? Man, this car is NO joke! But thanks very much for sharing the build. Most of us will not be able to copy all of it but we will definitely learn from you. Can't post too many 'behind the scenes'. Keep it coming !!

Great Piece of Work - The Mazda Corporation couldn't ask for a better representation of their race car - A testament to your modeling artisanship. Your growing body of work is impressive

Another excellent car for your collection - congratulations!
Crash Cramer
Dee, I don't know if you were possibly refering to me on the wheels, but I don't remember sending you any wheels. It is a great looker, I suppose it won't be lonely much longer as you are bound to build some racing counter parts for it.
DeeMiller
@Cramer: it's Chris, not you, I know. Thx for the compliment!
m.affi

This is sooo good! Extremely impressive. Stunning Masterpiece. First picture could go for a reference picture.

I always thought it was just some pics of the real thing when I browsed through your showroom. Only after I saw a comment left on Tamkyo's showroom where he mentioned this car did I actually look closer. Absolutely speechless.
Mr.Nismo
Hi there, i have seen this car in real-life this weekend during a Tamiya Meeting. What a great car this is. Dennis, you do set us Tamiya lovers on fire with this masterpiece. Great car!!
