Ferrari 512BB Bellancauto

[druid_99]

Hi all, been quite some time since I've visited this forum. Haven't stopped modelling but building different genres other than cars and bikes.

This is a long shot but I managed to get this partially complete 1/24 Ferrari 512BB Bellancauto resin model kit. This is the part that is included with the kit:


The parts that is missing is its spoiler stand (I can scratchbuild this), the tyre and the decal.

I managed to get the right sized tyre (although with different rims) from Renaissance models (Do inform me if the I can still get the actual rim used for the car).


The only thing left is the decal which I don't think any aftermarket is available. I was thinking if anyone that has the similar kit will be able to scan and share it with me so that I can trace and print the decal?

Thanks.

Imran

Thanks. Appreciate if you can scan it for me. I don't think it looks right without any decals.

by the way, from the picture that I've shown, is there anything else that is missing apart from the ones that I've mentioned?

I'll take a look today when I get home from work. Your kit looks like its a reproduction of some sort - I have the original Little Garage of Japan kit. I'll snap couple of pictures of the content as well.

Thank you, I appreciate it. I'm not sure who is the manufacturer of mine but the castings are quite crisp. I'm assuming it's one of those excess casting with no available wheels in stock... thus the reduction of price. Just my assumption though.

By the way, if it is not much trouble, can you share with me the instructions as well. I know where most parts goes to where but not sure of some.

Thanks again.

Nah, looking at your copy and my kit its clear it is some bootleg copy. But I'm sure it still can be built into a superb model. Here are the pics. If you need anything, let me know.

Wow! That helps a lot. Thank you very much.

Looks like mine's a reproduction of some sorts because yours did come with metal engine and parts while mine is only resin.

From the picture you've shown, there's a bit more parts that is missing, such as the interior details (steering, steering column, pedals), front and rear lights, as well as the clear parts which I will have to scratchbuild or aftermarket parts.

Thanks again.

Hello,
ST27 has done a decal sheet for this car, the reference is DC294, maybe you can still find one somewhere ?

Hi, thanks for the feedback. It's a different car though. The ones I'm looking for has a different shape all together, thus, the decal shape might not fit it.

Thanks though.
