Thanks Chris
I can see several areas where I shall have to alter/add, I'm afraid the bonnet louvers will have to stay badly aligned; Have to wait for MkII. Also 1953/4 not as I put 55

Interesting to see, I have a Pre-Ad kit of one of these that I won last year in concourse at the 1960's F1 event at Wolves. I had forgotten all about it until I needed something for EB's in March. I found it in a drawer and think i'm going to build it.
I briefly sidetracked thinking i might be able to squeeze my 4WD chassis into a Mercedes W196 but have since dropped that plan....
Good luck with your build and be wary of the available drawings.....
Cheers
Andi

yes Andi I am all too aware of their deficiencies. I really should have looked more closely at the contemporary photos.

 A fair amount yet to do Driver needs finishing dash and instruments steering wheel, windscreen and brake pipes. It will get done in the fullness of time. |

This is why I haven't finished the squalor. Mel has produced a lovely BRM.  |

Nice one Peter, but of course the BRM is more my cup of tea anyway. More pictures please if time permits?
Peter.

Hi Peter, Very nice indeed! I have just signed up here today so it is a good excuse to show the Ferrari 246 I have built using the body you kindly gifted to me, now with some added detail. Mark
