before I started this one, i had to search (and of course founded it) matching wheels and race seat that i casted before starting the build. Aaaaand as I started other projects and before it will be going forgotten, i put it on my workbench to see it often.

The Triumph will be an existing racecar with some changes. sure, i would own the better Gunze Sanyo kit, but the prices are horrible...if one is offered. Thats why i grabbed to the "cheaper" Minicraft Kit.
On the hand, it has a completed interior tupe with molded seats 🙁 .
and thats the starting point. Cut them out, make new sidewalls, floor out of sheet, glued them. sounds easy, but it took a loot of days for me to cut all out, I never built an interior tube scratch so i cutted a minimum out, make it easier for me to handle.
