Looks like you are off to a great start! I will be following this one for sure.

What do you mean by Stradale? Will you add racing stripes and BBS-wheels like Ferrari did on the 360?

I called to distinguish it from the road version presentation, which had the mirrors mounted on deflectors and a different grid rear side.

Bull: have a look at the MPWR F40 thread, would be useful to fix the bad fitting of the rear trunk in the tamy model.

Maybe I am missing something but all I can really see are the mirror and window differences?! What do I not see? Regardless, love F40's and your build.

more to the point, does anyone even make a kit of the prototype version of the car?
not to mention that if I recall correctly, early road cars had the plexiglass slide windows anyway so the only surface/visible differences are the wing mirrors.

Fujimi's 1/24 F40 is based on the prototype. If I recall correctly, in addition to mirrors and windows the interior door panels are different and there are five vents behind the rear tyres where the production version has only four.

Yes, all correct.
The prototype had 600 HP.

God, the F40 is my dream car. A few years ago I stumbled upon one of the prototypes at Lamb of Dallas.

Also the Italeri F40 (the street kind) represent the proto.

There are other few differences: different vents on the plexiglass engine hood (the real glass was warmcasted 2Km close to my home, I seen the evolutions) and different air ducts (they was pipes in the proto, a metal casted "airbox" on the final car). I'm sure there are some few other mods that I forgot.

now that you mention it, I don't think I've ever seen an Italeri F40 built.

Not to be a jerk, but could you not use the same mesh for the front as well as the rear? That would look better if you could. I like the door pulls - good addition as well as the interior detail.

Hi, unfortunately I did not have a large enough mesh back, (tamiya kit).
I used to rear a photo etched then be painted in black.

i say that the mesh on the rear looks like quite a good match for the one used on the back of the F40.

Not 100% sure what kind of mesh they have on the front though.

Unfortunately I was unable to find any better. :banghead:
I have a few photos of the front.
