Looking good! Can’t wait to see how it will look when you get everything done

Front suspension..

This is amazing, people like you that have the desire and dedication to create something special! Can’t wait to see more!

Randy…Thanks! I really appreciate it

Well, one of the reasons I really enjoy this kits is the little things that come with the kit. But on saying that there is always room for more, if you so desire. So this week’s update is, I worked on the dashboard and wrapping up the tub. I don’t know how many times I cleaned my airbrush. A lot of little parts? Hopefully your liking what I’m doing Chris

Very interesting and cool idea! Looks like the mandalorain needs a classic ride

Some more progress ?

So the good part about building the tub is most of its polished metal, the bad part is it’s polished metal ? a lot of big parts needed attention, lots of clean up, polishing ant then masking for the tubular frame that’s molded into the metal. And as usual lots of dry fitting and drilling holes. hope you like Chris

Those mesh screens look fantastic, well done sir. Looking forward to seeing everything come together

Looking pretty good, you would think that the fuel inlet would be a little more complicated. I like how it’s turning out ?

Wow, just wow! I have admired your craftsmanship for a few years. And as always I’m blown away with what you can produce. thank you for sharing.

Thanks guy! Super appreciated.. so true, it gives a good jolt of motivation. Especially when it’s from your peers ?

I guess I have a thing for Italian racing cars ? This will be the 1/12 Model Factory Hiro version A. Raced at Monza 1000km. Driven by Jackie Ickx/ Clay Regazzoni. hope you all follow along and enjoy Chris

Thank you for the compliment, I have the glamour shots up in the under glass section ?

It’s coming along nicely, looks great

This is the 1/12 scale Model Factory Hiro 1960 Ferrari 256F1 driven by Phill Hill.

This will be the last update on this build, I finished everything up today? I am super happy on how it came out.there are a couple little things that I wish I could have done better, but all in all it’s a very nice kit and it went together well. I hope you all enjoy sharing in with my progress. I do appreciate all the positive feedback, as always it’s greatly appreciated! There will be a bunch of glamour shots on the finished area of the forum ? thanks again Chris

Such a great subject and looking fantastic, and on top of that it’s so tiny ?

Steering wheel is finished and installed. Almost done

Thanks Tim, they are also very addicting ??

Thank you! I have had some great support and I have learned some different techniques that I will be using on some future builds

Thank you very much, it’s greatly appreciated? The seat was a fun part of the build, I surprised myself on how it came out

I didn’t paint it, it came that way from model factory hiro. Try Tamiya xf59

A few more bits

Thank you! ?
