    Because I don't want to contaminate the threads about 330 P4 cars in 1:1 to much with my 1:18 posts, I dedicate this thread to my project of getting all existing 330 P4, 330 P3/4 and 412 P cars in the right shape. I already showed my David Piper 0900 330 P4. Work on 0846 still goes on too.

    Picture 1: Searching for the right font and size of '224'. Any suggestions Jim?
    Picture 2: Even the purple scripts on the dashboard are there already.
    Picture 3: Hmmm, no engine yet...

    Here's a question, I can't tell from the photos, but do the shut lines of the door and engine cover line up?

    So the two unpainted coupes will be 0844 (in white/blue?), and 0858 as a berlinetta at Le Mans or Monza - then you have the eight originals. The green one has the P3 engine hump on the tail, so I presume it is 0854 - 0900 has a P4 engine.

    Unfortunately the shut lines (I think you mean the space between the body and the doors/body and the engine covers; you see, I'm dutch) on these Jouef cars are not 1:18 but still 1:1!!! They're terrible, but the model itself is awesome.

    The first unpainted coupe will be as the real one is now: red with strange mirrors and one seat. The green one is 0900 with a flat P4 tail, unfortunately without the alloy louvres at this moment. They will be added one time.
    The second unpainted is 0854 and isn't finished at all. There will be a hump on the tail but I'll better wait for the exact specs until there are some new pictures from the real one.

    Hi

    At the Targa the numbers were hand painted which we did as well using historical photo's as a guide.

    Mattel P4/5 is cancelled. Instead there will be a Ferrari 575 GTZ as far as my information is right.

    There will probably be a P4/5 in 1/18th, but you have to wait until Jim (and maybe Pininfarina) give the licensing to someone, which, as far as I am aware, has NOT been done as yet....

    I heard there were some difficulties with Mattel about this matter.
