I have been working on this one for longer than I originally planned. I had to strip it down to the resin once when I screwed up the finish.

Here are a couple pictures of the finished model.

VERY cool looking ! Great paint and finishing.

Are the white tires historical ?

Tyres are naturally white a company called Binney & Smith produced a chemical additive which was sold to Goodrich which was to make the tyres more durable improving the tensile strength of the tyre by as much as 1008% and also more appealing.

It does look as though white tyres are correct for the period.

Just for informations sake, Binney & Smith are now known as Crayola Crayons, they must've enjoyed playing with colours.

I dug through a lot of photos to verify the color of the tires. It did seem to depend on the location a bit, but the prototype I based this one off of had white.
