Ferrari 158 Question
I’m trying to create a more accurate replica of the 1964 Ferrari 158 using the much unloved Revival kit.
A small area that I’m wanting to improve is the area between the rear of the engine block and the front of the transaxle. In all the photos that I’ve found the detail of this area is obscured by the cross member for the rear suspension. I presume that this adapter looks about same for the 1512.
If anyone can help me understand the shape of this adaptor I would really appreciate it.

Re: Ferrari 158 Question
I'm looking for pictures of the battery area especially from the USA GP 1964.
The battery was white, but I like to know how exactly it was attached!!

Re: Ferrari 158 Question
If I'm correct, there is no battery in the Tameo kits!
At least I can't see anything in the instructions I looked at...
EDIT:
I just got the exact ones of the N.A.R.T. found and there is a battery here.
Unfortunately, the battery is the right way up, on the floor and not on its side as intended!
That raises more questions...

Re: Ferrari 158 Question
Yes the Tameo instructions are calling for a battery in right way up, but on pictures especially time period show a battery sitting on it`s side. Not sure if it is a mistake by Tameo....
Take a stand!
