Chaparral 1 kit made by Midlantic models with P/N: 20 and built by me. Although this kit has pretty good resin casting it falls short on cockpit details that I actually had to add to make it a decent model. The following was added: 1- sides of the rear bulkhead we could see the wheels, they had to be closed 2- The engine cowling openings had to be opened and an engine installed inside as well as brake oil tanks 3-real representation of the instruments behind the dash using aluminium piping of the appropriate dimensions also with wiring connecting the instruments to the front bulkhead 4-perforated side panels inside the doors.
•s/n: 1-001. This first s/n that in 1961 had 2 slots to draw air to the carburetors now in 1962 it was modified to come with a cover with an opening in the back and a different front inlet to the radiator.
