I' ve start to built this nice kit from SRC.
The object it is to modify the original kit parts using a new and rebuilt parts.
A little history of this car and his unlucky driver: Lorenzo Bandini.

Ferrari brought two cars to Monaco, n° 18 for Lorenzo Bandini and n° 20 for Chris Amon.
They ad revised 36 valce engines with central exhaust pipes, new nose sections anf faired in rear view mirror. Large air scoops were fitted to the front and rear brakes for the demandig street circuit.
Bandini started from the fron row of the grid and he briefly led the race but was passed by D. Hulme and J. Stewart who retired whilst leading. On lap 82 Bandini crashed at the harbour chicane and died from injuries three days later.




Front suspension, rebuilt the steering box e added shock absorber from Tameo.
