60 Red Years: 1969 Ferrari 312P

This is a Fisher resin 1/24 kit finished with Tamiya TS8 and no clear...and polished to a 'race car finish' eventhough they were much more rough back then.

The wheels are painted with Alclad Pale Gold, the interior is a custom mix acrylic red-orange.

The build is box stock except for replacing the kit resin tires with MFH 70's vintage rubber ones.

These kits are a joy to build and look great as simple as they are...to bad all Fisher kits are out of production atm.

Wow, Lovely shine on the model and it's the little details that set it off. Also, quite a strange car, I ve never heard of this particular ferrari before this great model.

Oh and thanks of course, for sharing!

Now build some more!

Shcwheet

Now I know why the question recently about the right shade of gold for 60's Ferrari racing wheels

I wish all kits were as satisfying to build as a typical Fisher kit. Simplicity rules

I agree, so it's even more a shame that Paul Fisher wouldn't produce those good models yet. The 312P wasn't so lucky and was changed early with the ugly PB, I'm in search of the P from the moment I seen the Prini's build.

Grat job, good finishing, may be the best materials for the '60 finishings. I'm envious

Very nicely done! I am about to order a 330 and was wondering what wheel color I would need. This looks like my match. That looks like a pretty simple build there. I'll bet it is a pleasure to build!
