1/12 Alfa Romeo 184T - Patrese 3rd at Monza

Post by Redbox »

This is my scratch built Benetton Alfa Romeo.
Riccardo Patrese was third at Monza 1984 GP.
My family lived few km from the track and I was born fewdays after that race...
I still keep the entrance ticket used by my father and will be displayed with the model...

A good looking car of mid turbo era.

Decals are drawn using a vectorial software, then printed by a local shop.

Just spectacular! The era of F-1 where just looking at the cars would raise your pulse rate. Beauty, combined with raw power and glorious unpredictability.
