MFH for April: something French.

[jmpsebring]

Screw the dental work! This is my Number 1 wish list car that was likely to be a MFH model. (I don't think they will do a promod or the Speed Demon LSR) Since the tub is green, and covered in rivets, it might be better to make the tub resin ....just this once.

So is this the Graham Hill driven MS 670 that won LeMan in 1972 ?

What an unusual and inspiring choice MFH have made here!!!!

Awesome news if it is the 670. will be interesting to see which version or versions they chose. My personal favorite was the 1973 LM long tails, but the '73 short tail sprint cars was spectacular as well.
My guess is they'll opt for the '72 LM entries, the short tailed Hill-Pescarolo winner, and the long tail cars of Cevert-Ganley and Amon Beltoise.

Is it the same engine as the 1/12 Matra MS-11 Hiro released last year?

The Ms11 had the intakes between the cams. The 670 is more like the MS120 MFH made is 1/20. The intakes are more conventional and more crossflow looking. Even the chassis around the engine is like the Ms120.
Someone made an amazing Ms670 in 1/8th scale. The way the front tube subframe bolts on to the tub is very cool. I hope that's included in the 1/12th kit. Never seen a bare tub photo, except for the 1/8 model.

A very nice Ms 120 build.

Builtupmodels is a realy nice webside which i`m following for a long time, and yes, a few million clicks have to be done to watch all of his projects!!
But i still agree, it is worth the effort! He did a lot of big scale models as well as 43 stuff highly detailed, realy worth to take a look.
