I finished the next one, the Maserati 250F, world champion 1957 with Fangio.
It's a Revival kit with lot's of die cast parts: chassis, suspension, engine, gearbox and the whole cowling. It's an old kit, so the casting quality was... well... ahem. Plastic parts are not much better, but can at least be sanded way more easily. Getting everything to fit is quite some work. If you have the time to model parts for your 3D printer this kit will benefit from them. But I don't want to badmouth the kit that much, it's not that you have that much choice of kits for 50s racing cars and the pre fabricated wire wheels look quite nice.
The cowling was pre painted, and I decided to keep the paint. I also didn't clearcoat it, only put the decals on. The only major thing I did was redo the wind screen from some slightly thicker plastic foil.
Hope you like it.
