My '65 Honda-F1 RA272
Hi guys, for those into classic F1 cars...
Here's my first F1 project... hope to finish it soon. So far I'm quite pleased with it  I'll post pics of it finished if anyone's interested.

Looking real good so far
I have the same kit in my “to build stack”. Never imagined that a classic Formula 1 from 1964 become so beautiful and well detailed. Keep the good work. Can’t wait to see the finished project pictures. |

Looks really good!! I'll keep an eye out on classic F-1 sites as you asked.... But don't expect too much. If you'd asked about walk-arounds of WW II-era fighter aircraft...
 Have you found any technical pics on the 'net of this Honda? I find it difficult in general to find engine and other technical pics on F-1 cars... Keep up the good work! Erik.

Erik,
Thanks, yes I found a few japanese sites that had some reference pics, mostly from the Honda museum in Japan where they have it on display.. most of the others I found were black and white  Its far from accurate but I'm no perfectionist. Just getting some practice in before I attempt my 1/12 Honda RA273.

Well, I didn’t wait to long to see it finished.
Great work Del-R, lovely classic F1 car. If you liked build this one I suggest you the Tamiya Lotus 25 Coventry Climax form the 62 season. Hope to see more of your Formula 1 projects. |

Funny you should say that, I was going to order that kit to add to the stock pile...
Need to finish off my S2000 first, then I may start one of my mclarens.

I prefer modern F1 and sports cars but that kit looks stunning.
I might have to get my hands on that one. Engine looks nicely detailed, shame you put the cowling back on Nice! |
