Need advice

[ajdriver]

I have recently returned to build.  Digging thru an old box of kits I found a Gunze Sangyo High-tech Model Ferrari 250GT SWB.  It has photo etched parts and a metal frame.  Has anyone built one of these?  I have questions of the difficulty as I have never successfully use photo-etched parts.

Yes. It’s a good kit that builds into a great-looking model. The hardest part of using the etch is building the “egg-crate” grille. This is how I did it on mine:

WOW great post on the build.  Thanks for the advise.

It really captures the look of the original very well:
