Correct. Testors just reboxed the Italeri kit. One of my favorite Ferraris of all time. I've built one as well, it looks very nice if you don't set it too close to a Fujimi version...but that Fujimi kit will take a lot longer to finish as it's got a zillion parts. Veyron's been working on one since before his hair turned gray

Re: Re: Testor's Ferrari 288GTO

just be careful in wheels fitting. Sometimes is necessary to correct something here and there in order to fit the wheels properly inside the wheel arches. If you do not do it the results could be a 3 wheeler model...

In regards to the front wheels, years after I built mine I didn't like how it sat up in front, so I carefully busted the front suspension and got everything fitting/sitting like it should. This will be much easier to address when building it. It can be fixed w/a little cut here, snip there. Nothing too radical needed.

Here's an earlier thread that you may find useful about Fujimi 288GTO. It has pics of Zoomzoom's Testors/Italeri model and my Fujimi model (I updated my IMG-links so the pics work now).
