Your work is very inspiring, one day I will quit building so many OOB builds and try my hand at some scratchbuilding, but for now I can sit back and relish the work done by yourself and others

Now its done.
The Capri is finished.
There are only some small parts to do,but the main thing is ready.
I want to say thanks for all your help and all your words who keep me going with this!
There was a time where i was not inspired and wanted to end this build,but your words helped me out of this.
Thanks guys!
Here are the last pics before i made the gallery ones.
regards
Christian

i know how much dedication gets involved to finish such a project. Many have started, only few made it. You did, so congrats!
More over, i think your latest work (interior, fuel system) really adds realism to the car, and makes it a beautiful build all around.
1 remark: the head lights are upside down
Probably you can fix easily...
