Hi,

Can anyone provide me insight regarding the overall quality of 1/43 kits produced by Precision Miniature?

Thank you

Hi Mustang,
On page 134-135 of the book “The History of White Metal Transport Modelling” by Ray Strutt and David Wright, there is a piece on Gene Parrill. Gene was an American producer of model cars and started PM. Wayne Moyer describes the quality as being variable but when their products were good, they were exceptional.

There is also "In the Beginning: The Early Days of 1/43 Scale Modeling" by Wayne Moyer that talks about the early days of 1/43 modeling. It's on Amazon.

Specifically, might you have an opinion on the Ferrari 250 GT/L Lusso kit released by PM?

Thanks again
