Box contents. Caution, its not all polystyrene. Some sprues are polyethene, some are ABS!
Watch your paints and glues to make sure they are compatible..

Aftermarket decals for 1973 Lotus. Ronnie Peterson and Emerson Fittipaldi.
Also includes the JPS sponsor decals that Tamiya do not include.

Parts for the famous Ford Cosworth DFV engine:
