Hi Frank,

Fantastic model! All the added details bits here and there really make the model looks much better. Your execution is great!

Does anyone knows what JS stands for in the car name?

Wow!
I haven't paid a visit to f1m in the last couple of days, and suddenly the Ligier is finished! Well done! And all those tiny additional details. Amazing!!!

I do my best to try to propose a transkit, I’m doing some modification to some masters that the parts was difficult to assembly or produce, it will need anyway some works to build it.

JS is dedicated to Jo Schlesser who was a good friend of Guy Ligier, He died in Rouen during the 1968 F1 race. Jean Louis Schlesser who won the 1989 WSC with the Mercedes C9 is his nephew.

Jo Schlesser, close friend to Guy Ligier, who died in accident in 1968. A tribute to him...

Wow wow! One of my favourite Ligier along with 1987 JS 29. You should be extremely proud to have this gorgeous blue model in your collection, the details you've added there makes it exceptional.
