ready to finish 1/8 entex M23

Post by plastiksurgeon »

Just wondering if anyone knows of, or has available detail sets, PE, or items for the Entex 1/8 M23 ????? I'm ready to build this thing, but wanted to collect any items that will help make it better, and there is so much stuff out there.....Thanks guys, Steve Mohlenkamp

Story that makes you cringe....... In 1978, I bought my first Formula One model, and it was the 1/8 scale entex M23. I got it off of a stack of about twenty of em', all in shrink, on sale for twenty five bucks each.... my only regret is that I didn't take em' all !!!!!! SM

This detail set is long out of stock, but maybe Wim can get his hands on one for you.
