Re: APM Models

Some nice 1/18s which was their core business sold as built ups, got my hands on a 458 road car, and a couple of 360 JGTC’s

they build easily, mostly resin including the tires and everything keys together for easy assembly

Love their kits, almost done with the Cobra

And have an extra if anyone is interested

I stopped using Tamiya white primer under splash, zero etc
