1974 Brabham BT42/3

Post by F1Xena »

Here is the finished article from my WIP. It was started well before the Group Build start date, but the majority of the work was done this year!
Was trying to think of a way to display it, and being a bit of a music fan, I wondered if I had a CD from that era in my collection. Guess what? Band On The Run, the iconic Wings album, was one of the top sellers of 1974. Perfect.

Hi Tania,
Super looking build of an all time classic Brabham, and the Lombardi car to, great. Love the Band on the Run idea, it sure aged me though!
Remember seeing Wings live in Brighton about that time :roll:
