this is my next project, i am going out of my comfort zone slightly as it is a few years since i last did a f1 car but i saw Tamiya has rereleased this kit and seeing as it was oddity in the f1 world i thought i would build it

Now that is a great choice, Syd, a classic Tamiya kit of something very different from the world of Formula 1!

This'll be good
I've got a couple of these Tamiya F1 cars in the stash.

A great start, Syd. These old Tamiya efforts still stand up very well IMHO (I'm a bit of a fan of their classic armour range, which can also be built up into decent replicas) and that engine/gearbox assembly looks nicely detailed. The fit of some of the parts will not be up to modern standards, however - but generally nothing that a bit of filler won't put right

Great inspiration and details for my 1/32 Matchbox kit.

That's looking great, Syd. I note the three pedals for the driver - back to the good old days of having a proper manual gearbox instead of all this modern flappy paddle stuff!

Really smart build Syd; nice to see a 'proper' F1 car again and I'm sorely tempted to add one to the stash even though I've never built anything like it before!

An excellent job, Syd. The model looks great in that classic Elf scheme.
