    Thank you for the compliment and also for the education ?
  4. Chris Smith
    That is a beautiful shifter and linkage sir! I will have a update on a Ferrari in a few days I hope,
  5. Chris Smith
    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 ?
  8. Chris Smith
    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 ?

    Sir I am still at amazement. I thank you for the kind words and hopefully I will get to see you build those beautiful MFH wheels ?
  11. Chris Smith
    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 ?
  14. Chris Smith
    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
  15. Chris Smith
    Just in case you think I have been slacking ?
  16. Chris Smith
    Lol ?
  17. Chris Smith
    Will do so sir! I will hopefully have some good bench time this weekend before the big game
  18. Chris Smith
    Have you contacted Kyoko or Ernie? They may be still making another batch. The first one sold out on pre orders. hopefully you’ll get a invoice soon ?

    I am going to attempt to build the new Model Factory Hiro Ferrari F2003 GA in of course 1/12. This is the version that Michael Schumacher drove in the Italian Grand Prix. I will have to say he is one of my favorite drivers and I’m super stoked to build this. As for the P4, I will be getting back on it probably after this one finished
  20. Chris Smith
    I just completed the Agora 1/8 Ferrari.
  21. Chris Smith
    Just a small update, I am going to put this aside for the moment. I just received a replacement part for another build I was doing and I also got a new kit that has my immediate attention, that has me real excited ? stay tuned
  22. Chris Smith
    Dean Martin’s kids P3 that was converted to a street car
  23. Chris Smith
    Thanks for checking in Tim , it’s been a minute since your last visit ?
  24. Chris Smith
    Started on the main chassis tub. Lots of fitment issues. I probably had to massage each piece to get it to where it is now. I have now to put some more tubing for bracing and then once it’s all done, I’ll get to cover it all up…?
  25. Chris Smith
    Hopefully maybe they can find another location
