Ferrari 312B 1/12 scale by Tamiya

Post by f40 »

Hi Guys,
I just wanted to share some recent photos on my WIP. A lot of customization with my own scratch build parts and using D molds trans kit. No rivets were added on this one due to issues I had with drilling straight holes. This will be the car of the 1970 Mexican Grand Prix driven by Jacky Ickx winning car. Hope you enjoy, more to come!

Cool, Finally going to see someone build this model with the proper wheels and tires. I actually gave a set of wheels and tires to a well known modeler here on F1M years ago for this purpose and he never has built the model. What a flake. Looking forward to seeing your progress!!! Looks great to this stage :D :D
