My jaw nearly hit the table when I saw the level of detail in this kit .

You've almost single-handedly turned me into a Ferrari nut with your posts .

The front end on that looks like it should build Sterling Moss's '61 winner according to the link.

I'm a BIG fan of this car having built one about 20 years ago using the Italeri kit. I'd like to get this MFH's version, but YIKES the price! I guess I'll just be content with the one I built, and the other Italeri kit I'll just keep a street runner someday.

Frank, if you can get to the next meeting, I'll bring the one I did........you'll be tickled by it!

Well for nearly $275 it better be.

This isn't a new kit, right? It's another version of previously existing MFH SWBs.

True.  The 250 GT Lusso was the last 250 variant I recollect and that came out at the end of last year.  They do get resupply out to vendors from time to time, though

Hi,

Well the blog may be dated from then but they did stop selling Ferraris in 1/24 for a good while.  I do frequent the site this was new to me.  They are fairly accurate in terms of stock so if you want it, buy it now as it won;t be on sale for long.

I personally like it myself but from what I hear about the MFH kits, they are a lot of work, for the advanced modeler of which I am not to an order of magnitude.  In fact I seem to be regressing, very disappointing.

Agreed. I've thought about getting the Lusso and the SWB, but I've never really worked with white metal. Also, I don't think MFH's chrome work is the best, and don't feel like spending additional hours tweaking and hundreds of $ to have parts re-chromed to my standards.
