Posted - 12/19/2013 : 07:52:13 FPM models have been adding alot of 1/24th scale resin model kits to their long list. The quality is very good with casting that is truly amazing. They do both sportscars and F1 kits. They are doing older cars that have never been done in larger scales before, and some that have only been done in very poor quality kits. Fernando Pinto has an eye for the cars shape and most have nice motors. The casting will amaze you!!
Here are the cars he has planned for late 2013 and early 2014...He is very busy. Fernando also does Bizarre 1/43rd models.
New 1/24th scale kits for late 2013 and early 2014. Check ebay for listings as he sells direct.

Posted - 03/03/2018 : 07:23:31 A few more FPPM 1/24th kits out. They did several Porsche 550's and are planning the 1954 #55 Pan Am 550 next. Also they are doing the Avio 815, the first Ferrari from 1947. Alfa Romeo P2 and P3 models are also in the future.
The biggest and best news is the Ferrari 250 GT SWB Bertone 1/24th kit they are working on now. What a great looking machine. |

Posted - 01/28/2017 : 12:33:46 I built the 1/24th FPPM Ferrari Lancia D50 French GP 1956 aero test car for Ferrari Expo 2017. Overall nice but I did change the wheels this time, and had to mess with the scoops and the rear end to make correct. A nice old school kit. Fernando has a great eye for shapes. That makes things a lot easier.

Posted - 08/25/2016 : 10:42:47 FPPM just did the Ferrari D50 French GP aero car and Blue Bird record car in 1/24th scale and will do Porsche 550 Spyder RACE VERSION 1953-1955 soon. Many red cars also on the way all in 1/24th scale.
This is the first accurate model of the Ferrari D50 Aero as all the 1/43rd versions were very inaccurate.

Posted - 02/06/2014 : 06:53:07 The latest FPPM 1/24th Alfa Romeo 2300 Lemans 1932 Sommers/Chinetti winner is out. I love this car with it's special aero nose. I begged Mr. Pinto to do this car since he had already done the long wheel base 1931 Alfa 2300 Lemans winner.
Look at those wonderful hand laced wire wheels!!
