No, no. No, no, no! That is wayy too cool! Have you ever thought of making Minilite-rims, or centers to fit inside split rims? That is in my opinion the only thing that is missing in the large scale-market, at least in 1:5th scale

Thanks guys.
Lars, minilite-rims, or centers to fit inside split rims is an excpensive 'game' for hand made production and low interest for cnc production.

Well Vass, the Miura was certainly a show stopper. I reckon it's incarnation into Jota was equally stylish. (Wasn't Miura the first to be labelled a "supercar?)
When I was a 12 year old kid, there was a service centre behind my house for Ferraris, Lamborghinis and the like. The guy who ran the show was chief engineer for Lola in the '70's. I got to go for rides in De Loreans, Espadas, Uraccos, Countach's - all sorts of way cool cars. Ol' Henry has Alzheimer's these days, a real shame. He also made carbon fibre bicycles, (Olympic grade) and a few of his own, (they were called "Lolita's). Funny how he used to tell me that Ferrucio Lamborghini was a tractor man, and did well - he had a Ferrari, and when there was a problem, complained. Ol' Enzo told him off, and so began an engineering version of the Montague's and Capulet's.
Cheers Mudgy

Yes,Miura is the the first supercar.
Childhood leave strong marks in the nature of man.
Very near to my house, there was the garage of Greek champion rally, which was running Lancia Stratos.
Do you suspect where I was at all times after school.
