If you've read my Eagle-Weslake WIP you may have noticed that I'm especially fond of the 67 F1 season - the reason for this is simple: for 10 years I raced the racing simulation Grand Prix Legends in several online leagues, and this game is about the 67 season.
The Eagle was my favourite car, but the car I have the 2nd most races with is the BRM - also called "Bathtub" because of the handling. In my favourite league I drove it for some years, but unfortunately I never won a race with the BRM in that series. We had handicap rules; the slower drivers got the fastest cars, and the fast drivers the slowest cars. I became fast enough to drive the slowest car, the BRM, but I had strong teammates, like Andy Wilke (a known name in the online racing scene), so I was his "Rubens" most of the time. But 2nd behind him ist not bad either, and it always was fun, so of course I had to get this kit.
As usual I started with the engine - the first pic shows the craziness (in a positive sense) of MFH... crankshafts, pistons... all hidden when you glue it together, but it's there
I glued the block together, polished it and treated it with a washing to get a slightly used, realistic look.
