## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does it include paint and cement?**
A: Paint and cement are not included.

This is a DIY product. The 2nd and 3rd pictures shows which tools you may need, and paint recommendations.  You can still buy different paints and tools from a manufacturer other than Tamiya.

This is not a miniature pre-assembled and pre-painted metal car.

**Q: Does the car have an engine/engine bay?**
A: No, there is no part that opens to show the rear engine. You can view the engine from the underside however. It is a great looking addition to my car collection. I painted it gloss white with black accents and red/black seats, red steering wheel and gold wheels. Have fun.

**Q: is it possible for you to tell me the wheelbase for the body of the car? length from the center of the wheel arch and width fender lip to fender lip?**
A: Sorry, no longer have this model.
