Hello....it's the Braun Tyrrell Honda 020 from the tamiya 1:20 kit which I snaffled for a mere 8.00 on ebay last week   also got the Ferrari F310B  

Both kits are not available any more (so I'm told) but are in excellent condition and are proving to be a really involved build. You can't grumble at 15.00 the pair surely ?

Nicely done and a nice price too.... looking forward to seeing how the build progresses

I have a couple of the tamiya 1:12 motorcycle kits to build one day
