Hi everybody, this WIP is from one of the most beautiful Ferrari F1 ever, in my opinion. The 312 from 1968, the version that won the French GP with Jacky Ickx at the wheel.
The kit is Tameo, 1/43, and is very detailed.
I hope you enjoy it and if someone is interested on him please contact Mike.

Thank you Mike,

Now some pictures from the final assembling.

The front suspension, brakes and oil tank,



fitting the nose cone, with the small revit to fix,



putting decals and polish them



some parts for the rear suspension and mirrors







exhaust pipes and support from wing






the wing is not been fixed, usually I keep the wheels and the wings off for shipping






now, there only miss put the model on the display base. I hope you liked, thank you.
