Toyota Corolla Levin (Fujimi 3250) and Studio27 decals This kit is
good basis for the rally Corolla driven by Hannu Mikkola in 1975 1000
Lakes Rally. Like most
Fujimi kits this kit is very basic. But the shape of the body look
convincing and with the visual examination the dimensions are accurate
enough.
The underside detail is very simplified. For example the exhaust
pipe is casted in the bottom plate likewise the gearbox and the leaf
springs. So some modification is required if the aim is a detailed model.
The interior is also quite simple. Seat cushions of the front seats and the
back seat is molded in the interior tray. The roll cage contains only the main
bar. The dashboard is only for the right-hand-drive version. There is two sets of rims in the box but unfortunately
both are wrong type. The correct ones are
the Minilite's.
The Studio27 set provides markings for Hannu Mikkola's winning car of 1975
Rally of 1000 Lakes. The quality of decals is first class.
