Re: Plastic wish list

We really need 3 litre BRMs. 1/20 scale, P133, P139, P153, P160, p180, P201.

I think if Ebbro can do the 88, which never actually raced, they might be encouraged to replicate the Lotus 63 4wd.

Re: MFH Dezember 1:12 news

If a C9, I wonder if they will produce both the M117 and M119 variants?

Re: #2 XJR-9 1988 LM Questions!

1) a) Don't know when. b) probably got knocked off by another car or fasteners failed so could not be replaced efficiently without replacing the whole rear deck, or they ran out of replacement covers.
2) Dirty clear tape to cover seams and reinforce body work connection.
3) cracked body work(?)

Re: September MFH 1/12 full-detail news

Re: September MFH 1/12 full-detail news

There must be a DFV expert on this site who can pick out some distinguishing features of that particular engine and what year it might be, no? Like the spark box and distributor configuration or something like that? I manipulated the image on Photoscape and lightened it up and it's much easier to s...

Re: MFH 1:12 Lotus 77 query

Hi Paul I would say that this P34 schematic is unfortunately not totally helpful in understanding the gearbox lubrication plumbing. It does not do a good job of outlining the engine oil schematic either. The standard FG 400 always had an oil pump, but it was internal to the gearbox off the tail of o...
