Ok this is one of my favorites formula one and my first 1/12 kit, studio 27 for air funnel, thunder valley wheel hubs and more details.

Great job what you can see so far. I'm working on the same project without TVR wheel hubs but with the AZRM alloy wheel set. I'm still sanding and filling the cockpit. What color did you use.
The front & rear shock absorbers and wheel centerers I turned myself from aluminum. It's a lot of work, but I hope it's worth it. I will definitely be there for the next update. In any case, I like the cockpit very much.

Very nice Start :) . I remember well Building my first/only 1/12 Kit which eventually was Tamiya's 312t4, too. The only that made the finish Line ( The HELLer Renault Turbo DNF, that Kit I don't wanna remember :mrgreen: ), only I have 2 Tamiya 1/12's to do ( F190 and Tyrrell 003 ).
