    Hi everyone,
    as promised in a earlier thread, I have finished the Pocher Ferrari spider with a convertible soft top . Many friends remember my models: the Ferrari 430 grey that I have build and the Ferrari Enzo both scale 1/10. I will be posting all the images of all the work that have been done over the years. The scale model has over 1500 screws, detailed rims, brakes, tubing, fully detailed engine just like the real car, exact interior. I hope you all enjoy my work. This is just the start. I will be adventuring myself in building the Lamborghini Aventador scale 1:10 or 1/6 from scratch. I have attached a photo of the real car, the final model build has one difference, the colour. I have chosen the Bianco Fuji (Pearl White)
    Cheers

    Looking forward to it! I can still remember as a young boy watching my dad put together his two large Pocher models (one a "regular" Testarossa and one a white spider).

    I love how you are maching your own parts! I have 4 pocher models and I could have some serious fun with your skills!

    I still have the Pocher F40 NIB that I bought in summer 1995. Didn't have the guts to build that with my amateur skill. I should've bought more Pochers back then

    Hi Chiaro, first thank you,
    The model was exposed at the model expo and some friends already have asked me to build two more models same as mine with the working opening roof, this will be an adventure since I don't to this for a living.

    My jaw drops looking at the attention to detail here.

    Do you enter many competitions with your models? I've seen this level of dedication on some aircraft models before, but not nearly as much with cars.

    Do you have the facilities to make more photoetched parts? Would you consider selling some on eBay ?

    Great work so far.
