This is the tamiya f40 kit. sprayed with tamiya ts-49 red. has studio 27 etch set. i dont really like the stock wheels on the car, so i took the wheels out of the monte shell tamiya f40 kit. I saw a pic of one with flat black 5 spoke rims with a black ring around them, the car was the bright ferrari f1 red. i thought it was pretty hot looking so i decided to build me one. kinda like my own dream f40 if i was to ever own one.

Nice F40.

The black wheels give it a different personality.

I like the open mesh in the tail light panel. Is that photoetch?

By the way, Welcome to the forum!

Thanks,

That looks great! Nice clean paint. I do like the wheels too. It gives it a bit of a tougher look.

Nice work!

Wonderful! I was a schoolboy when the F40 was launched and it was my dream car, I couldn't believe it - a 200mph racing car for the road, and mean-looking too.

Really nice build, excellent paint, like the choice of wheels.

B):blink: I'm not even going to bother saying anything, if you can't figure it out, we're going to have problems ;) I really love it. As I grew up when this came out, oh man, my favorite car growing up and even now!

Love your name to, were you born with that? Scuderia Ferrari? I would love for that to be my name! :D

Beautiful, just beautfiul, Michael. Where do you live?

That's a nice F40 - I really like those wheels, gives it a nice modern feel. They are getting a bit long in the tooth now I guess...
