Great paint job, great build, great conversion! I think I could pick my teeth in the shine, and the added seatbelts, tasteful engine detail, and S27 conversion goodies have come together nicely in your hands. You've even added undertray support wires to the engine! Very cool.

Cheers, Chris

So beautiful!! Great to see this conversion so nicely done. It's one of my favorite cars; I did the FW11 long ago but the 11B is still waiting in the shelf.

Thanks again chaps. I think the FW11B just looks better than the FW11. I love the snorkel intakes, just wish I had been able to get some depth in mine. Don't know if a more modern casting, maybe in resin, would give a better result. I also love the blue ICI logo on this car.

Definitely, iconic cars. One of the highlights of my life is seeing the FW11/11b race at Detroit and Mexico City.

Beautiful car....
