Your right, did not notice that. Colors say Ferrari but I think that is throwing us off. Has to be 1970 or 1971 Firestone tire car due to tire treads. I don't think they used those tires in Can Am and mainly used them in F1. Could be a Porsche or March. I don't think its a T33 Alfa.

I'm wondering if it's the March 707 Can-Am car. The color hints are spot on, and that was a terrific car. It was very popular, though it only did a handful of 1970 Can-Am races piloted by Chris Amon. Helmut Kelleners raced it in the Interserie Championship as well.

That was my guess on page two.

Seems some of us have forgotten that MFH have no Ferrari license at the moment. I doubt it is a Ferrari and I'm pretty sure the color thing is not a thing any longer. Hiro stop using color as a hint when you guys guessed a couple months in a row what the subject was in the first few posts.

I have no idea what it is or if any of the line drawing parts could be from a RA300 but I do think we will see that car sooner or later come from MFH.

Just my thoughts

The drawing could actually be from a RA300 front suspension. The girling brake caliper, vented brake disc and vertical spring all "work".
The tyres are wrong though...

Red, yellow, white colours. All tires look width...my bet is for a Lotus 56B, already done by MFH in 1:20
