You're obvious choice Mark is to pick up a Tamiya body (the most realistic bodies on the planet...insert marketing powers here ) Please don't show up with a Casper the friendly Ghost paint scheme, though if you do, remember to use Tamiya paint.
How about a play on the old "plain wrap" logos. A white car with a blue stripe and the words "RACE CAR" on the side ? I would recommend Tamiya's PS-1 with PS-33 Brilliant Blue for a proper artistic finish.

Done listing the latest batch of kits on fee-bay. Time to go to bed......

Hello F1 fans,

Today I'd like to share some official images of our new car, the F104 Version II. The car will be released in late June. The image shows front and rear wings with foam tires. The kit will not have that included. You are free to pick your favorite Tamiya F1 body of choice and tires of choice.

Fred,

Tamiya paint is awesome. The spray can paint is very high quality and has great coverage. It also has more propellant then the Pactra cans which I like because it allows for more consistant coverage.
