After i While i decided not to be lazy and finally get out the camera the pictures of the F2005 that appeared on the last post now that is time to the anual clean process of this jewel i got
Although im not good enough with pictures and angles i did the best i could:

This car was adquired by my dad back in the day just for fun because like me, he was a fan not only of F1 but collecting things. After some time he started using it on small comps between locals with the same hobby. The original battery was changed by a 12V one instead of stock 5V, Thing that even with the risk of damaging the motor, maked the man champion a lot of times.
(Yeah its dirty asf but it was before cleaning it, idk what happened to the multi focus of my sony btw)
Unfortunately, in 2010 i think, my dad forgot to change the battery for the normal one and gave me the remote thinking it would be fine. And as a kid after pressing the remote at full, the car did some ayrton senna type of thing crashing into a corner of a wall and breaking some direction part. Making the car now unusable because of not turning and going into straight line (although after that the car winned a last race, but this time it was a drag one because of the damage). The crash affected a lot, like mirrors, some aero parts and even the wing (kinda weird that the wing its the most not affected part)

As Yall can see, Marlboro and a lot of sponsors are missing. This happened when anti tobacco law was introduced in 2005, and the car went like this because people doing them had to rip a lot off to avoid a big fine. But some of the original ones remain, the rest that were there just vanished cz of years and years being there (But hey, it feels like the 2001 no sponsor ferrari anyways)

This Was One of the best pictures i got, vodafone sponsor can be seen here. That and a closer look of the Potenza Wheels (god how i loved that). And also, the marks from the wall of the last drag race are visible on the potenza and bridgestone name (also on the picture below on the shell logo).

This last picture is only to yall to get the difference between the damaged and barely damaged side. Also, the Shining stars of who else but 7 times champion Michael Schumacher. The Man, The Myth, The legend, are more visible on this take. Having Schumacher as the driver is one of the best things of this car, because the other models on the store were only with Barrichello or without a driver.
