Just a few pics of my second build this year, on my mission to build some of James Hunts f1 cars 4 down 2 to go, Built using an excellent resin she'll from DNQ, penelope pitlane chassis, pendles Hubs and tyres, old scaley rear wing and some left overs from the decals box. And not forgetting the airbox kindly donated by Tedm.
I've tried to replicate loosely the car from the early races of the 1973 season. Just a quick question for those in the know I'm sure I read somewhere that they used to run this car on Goodyear on the back and Firestones on the front is this true ? I didn't have any Firestone decals so went with goodyears on the tyres ? Looks ok I think
