It is an FIAT 124 Yellow mustard, color laid down on the
model specially for the Model Car World (http://www.modelcarworld.de/de/) die-cast scale models seller (They
say “The limited edition of 1,012
copies model is expressed in classic yellow”).
There are some “luxury features” reporting to the Russian
sister car, Lada 12oo. The white tire ring and the interior slightly retouched make
the difference between the two car models.

So, inspired by the lowered Lada cars I found on the net, I
did the same thing with this scale model. The modifications involved the
reconstruction of the rear axle (cutting a piece of the axle upper side) and of
the front suspension (reconstruction of the “upper suspension arm” on the molded
body chassis). Doing these things I lowered the (die-cast) car about 10 mm,
which is enormous when we’re seeing the “factory condition”.
The white ring becomes white wall and the rims they selves
get a flat white finish to fit the look of a classy Euro low rider.
The sticker bomb decoration is made from the real tiny decals provided
by different donors kits. The under doors trims are covered in some nail decals
from a beauty shop.
