| Kurtis Kraft Offy Midget I always like the look of the Kurtis Kraft Midget and when Revell announced their Offy version I jumped at the opportunity. A club member gave away a number of unusual colours of Tamiya lacquer spray paints that he got at a hobby closing sale. I picked up this pink colour and decided that the Midget would look good. Of course, because the car is so small, I still have plenty left over.
