    Grand Prix Models will have them.


    On the photoetch point, here is an example of why photoetch would look better in some cases.
    Its a photo sent to me by Patrick from Minidelta. It shows a P4 window and frame wich was basically screwed or riveted
    into the door frame. Looks almost like the photoetch part supplied in the kit, only larger!!

    You mean Fisher kits?

    Fisher kits are very high quality curbside kits(no engine detail). His models look very accurate, even more so than Hiro kits. They are simple car kits with no engine detail(yet:) )!!

    The 1/24th California looks good, and it has a motor.

    I think Fisher will have some really nice car kits coming over the next few years!!

    I only really intended to build Ferraris but i really fancy one of those GT40s. I have read the detail is not supposed to be too good but im sure it will suffice for my skill level :)

    As so often with these super duper kits they get carried away... totally misreading what us model builders want and end up over engineering the parts that don't matter and under engineering the good stuff... and/or getting the proportions all wrong which is a biggie.

    Any tips on the selling of this transkit / kit from the Ferrari 16M ?

    Hi,

    I have nothing to do with the 400SA. I was trying to trying to get the person who made it to sell kits. I dont think he will anytime soon.

    I have seen the transkit for the 16M advertised at Raccoon. Hiroboy might have them now along with mediamix.

    Latest from MFH, the Cobra 65 427 prototype in a 1/24th scale kit (never raced or even finished!).

    Hobby Design has done a few more 1/24th Ferrari photo etch sets. They are very nice and now include
    the Ferrari 430, 575/550, 246 Dino, 250 GTO, 250TR, Testa Rosso 1985, Enzo and FXX, F50, 599 and 612.
    They also did F430 resin wheel sets to do the racing version(replace the Studio 27 kit wheels) and a good looking 250 GTO resin motor and dif.
    They also have 1/20th F1 photoetch sets for the 312T2, T3, 126CK, C2, 641 and 248F1.
    Nice stuff.

    Get the APM kit that I mentioned a few weeks ago and do it in 1/18 instead! Includes bumpers, rear hatch, sideskirts, seats.
    The A Plus kit seems to require that you combine the Fujimi 430 Spider and Scuderia kits.
