After 15 years of badly wanting a model this specific car, Chan has performed his magic for me and I now have a 1/43 scale curbside 212 #0090E!

He passed a comment during the build that sums this up perfectly: he said this was a "jewellery class model" :o)









(image credits: Rosso43)

Chan built a pair of these together, mine and one for another collector. He not only totally reworked the body, but custom built everything else; hand-laced Borranis, photo-etched brass Englebert tires, cast and 3-D printed parts, etc., etc.. I reckon Chan is absolutely right at the top of his game - and only getting better!

Simply stunning. It's a "jewellery class model" alright. Masterful craftsmanship. Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Jono.... I would love to take you up on your offer one of these days. I know you have a great collection, and there is nothing quite like actually seeing those gems in person. I have always wanted to visit New Zealand. Same offer from me to you as well if you come to New York.
