    Do any of you remember the French guy that made a model Ferrari with working engine and transmission about 2-3 years ago?. Does anyone have the link to the vid?

    Thanks,

    Bob

    I think you are talking about " Brauer's ". I got two of his models.
    They are about $4,000 US for 1/43 and about a year on waiting list. I got mine of a Singapore collectors two years ago... see picture below

    Here's the story on the guy that made it.

    http://www.fine-art-models.com/e/gallery/scerri/index.htm

    There was a link to the vid at the Fine Art Models site, but it doesn't seem to work now.

    Looks like they want you to buy the DVD.

    I have the vid on my computer, but for some reason all I'm getting is audio, no video?

    I read about that years ago in either Forza or PH. I can hardly believe it.

    You can download the video here: http://www.nmd.com.au/download_detail.cfm?id=7 (.zip file).

    It really is hard to believe.

    I think I heard that either a private individual or Ferrari themselves offered $500K for the model, which was turned down.

    Hi Bob - it is a .ram file which I guess needs RealPlayer. Do you have that?

    If you do and it still doesn't work, let me know - I'm sure there is some file transfer method we can use.

    Video quality isn't too great on this one by the way; still interesting though.

    As I said earlier, I have it on my puter but only audio plays. It used to play both audio and vid.

    I just downloaded it again from the au site and, all I get is audio.

    It is a zip file and I am using RealPlayer.

    Don't know why I don't get the video portion anymore??
