    More motor shots from the Hiro 917LH 1970. The tire tread and wheel rims look nice but the sidewall detail is poorly lacking. In 1/12th scale the tire size numbers and every crease and logo should be on there. Also the profile is not perfect. Hiro does not make accurate tires on their pre slick car models, although they are getting better.

    The announced 1/18 resin kit of the 330 GTC speciale (S/N 9439) has been released last month and is now on sale. There is no website but there is a facebookpage (Maqatt) with pricing and more info on this model.

    Looks very well done. What paint did you use. I think the color is Azzurro Hyperion.

    I think Niko from Airtrax was the one that sold it. Rare kit from Japan.

    FPPM is planning a 1/24th scale Casitalia F1 car along with a few Jaguar C type Lemans winners. Next up are the Ferrari 375 F1 1951 Silverstone and the 1936 Auto Union C-type in 1/24th scale.


    After that the Ferrari 1962 Lemans winner and the Alfa Romeo 1934 Lemans winner. The Ferrari 625 1955 Monaco winner is also coming this year!! Some but not all will have motors. He is very busy, and this is not even the complete list. Get these models before they are out of production. You will be paying alot more on ebay in a few years if you don't!! The shapes and parts are very well done. The hand laced wire wheels are the best in the industry at this point, alot better than photoetch.

    Hi Alex,
    I´d love to have this kit for my collection, but as I understand it´s sold out.
    Could you provide a contact/email for a source- maybe there´s more to come?
