Agreed! Would fit in nicely with my 908/3's as a combatant. And a Ronnie Peterson car if I'm not mistaken. So would fit into my collection of RP cars nicely as well. Fingers crossed!!F1tommy wrote: ↑Thu May 12, 2022 9:52 pmYes that's the one. That car did pretty well winning 3 races in 1971 including the Targa, so it would be a good choice.Icon_Modeler wrote: ↑Thu May 12, 2022 8:58 pmThat 908/3 style Alfa would be cool, is that the T33/3 Tom??

Re: 1/12 MFH kit June 2022
Funny how glossy these old period cars are...
I have witnessed several modellers who claim that in the old(er) days the cars were not gloss at all! BS! Always check your references.
These generalisations will most likely apply to some but not ALL.
The most likely scenario is that the modeller in question does not have the ability to finish the model with a spotless finish...

Re: 1/12 MFH kit June 2022
Oh well, opens pants.. not for that! checks for money.. here we go again. That Alfa would go well with my early 1970s prototype thing... Not the '71 LM though... But then again, so would another 512 from that period. The Lotus would get a sigh of relief from me for that "not interested in" bitIcon_Modeler wrote: ↑Fri May 13, 2022 7:31 pmAgreed!

Clearly he is pulling one on us. That is of course a red balloon animal. I call it the "bicycle"
