Rich Chernosky Posted January 27, 2019 Posted January 27, 2019 This is my first Ebbro kit and i must say i was very impressed with the detail and fit and finish. I did add some extra detailing but not as much as I could. Color is Tamiya TS43 Racing Green. Frame is a custom mix light grey. All of the parts fit as advertised with the exception of the cowl. This had to be pinned on and if you look closely you can see them although they were painted to match the body color. I have since cone other Ebbro kits and enjoyed them very much. The quality is there. Have others on this forum experienced the same
bbowser Posted January 28, 2019 Posted January 28, 2019 Very nice! Always happy to see an open wheel car. Great color.
MeatMan Posted January 28, 2019 Posted January 28, 2019 Great build Rich! I love that era but have yet to build one. You're inspiring me!
Dave Van Posted January 28, 2019 Posted January 28, 2019 WOW!!! Great work on that one. My understanding is Ebbro is kinda a offshoot of Tamiya.....and why they share some tooling. Nice stuff.

Thanks for the compliment.

Phildaupho Posted January 28, 2019 Posted January 28, 2019 This is fantastic. Absolutely beautiful model. Very well built. I had no idea Ebbro had a kit of this car. A local vintage car racer has a full-scale one in his collection which I have seen.
Ich_Will Posted January 29, 2019 Posted January 29, 2019 Very nice. I'd love to do a few open-wheel racers, someday.
Dann Tier Posted January 29, 2019 Posted January 29, 2019 I LOVE these cars!!, and you did an outstanding job of it!!!
Jim N Posted January 29, 2019 Posted January 29, 2019 Great job! I just bought a couple of Ebbro Tyrrell's from the early 70's. Looking forward to building a couple of race cars that Jackie Stewart drove.

Looking forward to building a couple of race cars that Jackie Stewart drove. Keep an eye out on here. I built both of those and am planning on posting pictures. Did both of them at once and it saved me some time.
Richard Bartrop Posted January 30, 2019 Posted January 30, 2019 Very nice! I'm sorely tempted to seek out some of those Ebbro kits.
