1959scudetto

Very nice replica, Rich - this is one of my absolute favorite racers because of its sheer beauty. You did this kit justice and the profil 24 kit has the correct proportions. Well done !

Just came upon your WIP - this will be interesting to see - Jason's wheels are great and the USCP engine parts look excellent (I was thinking about getting a set, too)

That is NICE !!! A wonderful model of one of the best-looking classic Ferraris ever (and there are lots of them) - very well done, Thomas !

You're welcome, Gary. In Italy, there is a F1 collection (IIRC 120 models) and a Ferrari F1 collection (80 models?) on the run - all in 1/24 scale. (A guy in Vienna offered the 2 above for € 19 each so I drove there to get them (only 10 miles from my home)

Lucky guy, I have only seen photos of it online. Exactly my words, Dave - though I also do have the later F50 and Enzo kits in my stash, I find them not as esthetically pleasing as the F40. Correct, Thomas, I cut it into the body with a hobby knife.

Thank you all for the positive comments on this kit (which has certainly its issues).

Thanks for the comments, Bob!

Excellent execution of your Mistral, Ken - it has definitely a French vibe to it - it reminds me a little bit of the 1937 Peugeot 402 Darl'Mat Roadster (pic from Ultimatecarpage.com):

Very nice Gary - cna't wait to see it finished!

Started working on body modifications of this old gluebomb...

I forgot my Teapot Graphics/John F. Johnson 1962 Ferrari SP resin kit (got this in 1993) and a very old (ca. 1966) FROG kit of a Lola T70 Spyder (was a half-built gluebomb snatched on ebay) which seems to be a kit made out of a slotracer = very crude:

You have 3 of my holy grails there, Scott ! Great !

This will be an awesome looking model - seems that starter has hit the contours and proportions of the car very well. It is admirable how you turn out such wonderful models in that small scale (I tried myself a few 1/43 kits more than 30 years ago, but gave up on it - much too tiny for me).

Jason of Jackmodelling makes excellent 3D printed Borrani spoke wheels in several sizes (even with matching Dunlop racing tires) - highly recommended ! Below, find 2 pics of this wheel/tire combo on a Ferrari 250 GTO (Italeri): He is on holiday now, and will be back on July 30 - here is his e-mail address and e-bay shop: contact.jackmodelling@gmail.com https://www.ebay.com/str/jackmodelling

Finally finished this one: started around 1990 and finished it today. Mostly box stock apart from some detailing. In comparison with its civilian brother (also Italeri): "Winged warriors" - Italian style: Here is sort of a WIP if interested:
