Can anyone assist me in locating a 1/24 MG kit of the 1953 Ferrari 375MM Carrera Panamericana (car #26)? Thank you

That kit is out of production. The body shape is also not that good at all. To do it right you will have to modify alot.


Here is a link to photos of a 250MM I am doing(same rear end as the 375MM's). I noticed MG missed the angle of the rear quarter panel and the roof on theirs is to low. The nose on the 250MM is shorter as it has a 2400mm wheelbase.

Thank you for the information. Do you believe that the 1/18 MG model of this Ferrari also has body shape issues?

From the pictures I have seen of it I would say yes it does have issues. MG was hit or miss. The only Pan Am Ferrari I liked of theirs was the 1/12th 375 Plus 1954 winner. The body was pretty nice.
