Just got some early christmas presents for my self
A slot-it f40 ferrari kit and a fly ferrari 250lm kit is on the way here
The Distributer in N/A oversold the Fly ferrari kit so not that many are available
If u want one -get one quick-not shure on the down under situation or Europe

Fly Ferrari 250 lm
It is worth it -as it is 1/32 scale and not 1/27(Racer) and 1/2 the racers(Kit) price
The instructions are inside the clear case and are pictographs
The little screens are for under the airduct clamshells(in front of the windshield)(Not in the instructions)
Do not use CA on the etched metal pieces, as it dries too fast(donot ask) Use clear 5 minute epoxy instead
I Find the chassis a bit of a tight fit,not shure if that is because of the front radiator ducting piece- i hope this does not hurt the handling
Too bad that u have to deassemble the interior to get to place the screen over the injectors- i did not do this
This kit is NOT made for youngsters -It is a bit finicky maybe let them watch u
Nice looking car-will have to see now how it runs-(darn snow is hindering this as i do not have my track set up)

Hi Verne
I'm looking forward to this one. I have the Airfix and the Monogram models from the sixties also.
Thanks for the assembly tips. It's always a pain when the assembly order goes wrong. Even experienced kit bashers still do this!!!???
