Reynard 89D F 3000

[Aldo Carvalho]

Hasegawa 1 / 24. The kits in this series tend to be prisoners of the boxes.
Thanks for your attention

Hello Aldo,

Perfect build F3000 you showed us, with some nice detailed engine.
Also very good pictures.

question: Do you only build in 1/24th scale?
Because thats exactly my problem. I only build in 1/24 (and of course 1/25) scale, and the choice of F1 (or monoposto's) is limited in that scale.
I have a few Hasegawa's, Revell's, Gunze Sangyo's, Heller's, Entex and one Hiro kit.
For the rest all the 1/20 manufacturers get the kinky F1 cars.
But I dont want a 1/20 car between my other 1/24 cars.
I think they must produce them also in 1/24.
For example the lotus 79!
Why I don't buy it? (....you guess...)

It's a shame, it's a shame.

Thanks for the visits and comments.
I prefer the 1/24 (1/25) scale but I also have something in 1/20 (Revival). My dream would be the Merit collection again in the market. In the boxes, I still have a Maserati 250 (Fiote models) and a Brabham BT33 (Heller). Recently I got a very good 1/20 AMD BT 44B.

I also have the Brabham BT33 from Heller, I must say the Entex 1/25 models (I have the Brabam BT46/3 and the Ferrari 312 T3) also look very good but are limited in parts. From Smêr I only have the Alfetta 1950 and the Talbot Lago 1949 (aren't the Smêr kits the reproductions of Merit?)
Wich car models did Merit make?

I was at the Spa 6-Hours this Sunday. I made some photo's of the Brabham BT42 (says the program book) but I think it's the BT46.
Send me a PM with your email if you want the pics.

Hi Mech@nic
Smer only did the two monopostos you said and I think they used old Merit tools.
The Merit line in mid sixties

My Alfetta

and the Talbot (the one from Heller is better)
