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 ? -

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 ? -

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

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…? -
Hopefully maybe they can find another location
