Thank you for the compliment and also for the education 😁 -
Great progress Tim. I do like the grill, looks sharp! I bet that 20 hours of bench time seemed like a few minutes.

Well to tell you the truth I don’t know 😂 they do have on the real car have some sort of thermometer on the suspension that reads in deg Celsius. I was going by my reference photos. As we know can’t have enough paint 😁 -

I found out about it this morning. Now I have to redo the the rear wing elements 🤪 -
Tim, I’m so excited for you! I’m glad to see your back at it… It’s such good therapy. Looking forward to seeing more. Take care my friend 😁

I use Gravity Colors # 114 Ferrari Rosso Scuderia. Over Tamiya grey primer. I have been using Gravity Colors for a while and have had great success with using it 😁 -

Just add color 🤪 I did spend quite amount of time prepping to get it at this stage. But it is will be worth it when it’s done.. -
Randy… I want to thank you for the kind words and checking in on my builds. As I am a assembler of a kit you are a true craftsman. Would have to suggest have you tried to find the wheels you’re looking for from Model Factory Hiro? They did release a number of 1/24 scale kits that had wire wheels. If they are similar to the larger ones, you have to lace them up by yourself. Every part is separate

I did have the rest of the rear suspension painted and decaled, I also had the rear brakes as well as the bottom of the rear wing. I added some carbon decals to the bottom wing. I like it better than the semi gloss black. I do enjoy having everything ready to go, then when I assemble it looks like I’m making progress. Hope you like 👍 -

I got some assembly done. All the wishbones are covered in carbon decals. It took a good amount of an afternoon to just do what you see. lots more to do -
