Thanks Geoff, the wheels are nice but the rims may be oversized a bit.

Have 2 other 1:24 kits of this car and 1 kit for photo-etched wheels, all wheels/rims are different diameters (smaller than these), haven't had time to research the right size.

interesting point Chav photos show a variety of subtlety different styles. Magnificent vehicles. Of course if we had a spare $48.4 mil we can check them out ourselves:

Cool! Is it 1:24?

Never seen it but I am not that much into racing.

It's a 512, plastic built model and it is 1/24th.

Awesome! Do you still have it or it was your dad's?

Just curious, cause I know you collect mostly 1:18.

This is the only kit I found:

This one is a keeper, Ferrari with numbers on it is right up my alley, even kept some 1/43 race cars. To me this looked better than the Mattel 1/18 versions.
