Blu Sera Ferrari 275 GTS/4 NART

1/24 Italeri Ferrari 275 GTS/4 Nart spider in blu sera. I love this car in this color. Just perfect and sexy. Changed the rims and added ignition leads in the engine. All black interior.













The 275's.


Now sitting in my Ferrari spyder lot.

Looks great! The stock kit rims are more correct for the 275 though.

Re: Blu Sera Ferrari 275 GTS/4 NART

I agree with both comments, the car looks very good, the paint is nice everything is perfect. I just think you should ditch those cheezy plastic spokewheels and upgrade to something more suitable... of course depending on how much time and money you're willing to spend. Clearly you 're a good modeler, you should try it.

I want a set of Campagnolo wheels, but where can I get them?

The original issue Fujimi Daytona kits contained both correct Borrani's for the Datyona and Campagnolo's all the same width. I don't think the new issue kits have the Campagnolo's.

Or... if you want to do the wider rim in back like most the Daytona's with five stars really were...then order Fujimi's 330 P4 Campagnolo wheel set and change the tires and the center of the rim..

Absolutely beautiful and clean build. That looks great in blue.

I'm not certain of the wheel dilemma the guys are talking about as I am no expert in these older Ferrari's. I think the wheels look nice although the spokes are a bit thick.

I have a set of Fujimi Campagnolo's that they re-issued late last year I believe. You may be able to find those much cheaper and easier than buying a whole kit for them.
O.K. scratch that the re-issues are big n littles.

I went through all my Fujimi enthusiast kits that were re-issued and they all come with both sets of wheels.


At any rate, your build looks great. I really like it!
Chris

Beautiful build. I've been looking all over for this model kit. I just hope Italeri will reissue this kit in the future...

@Rock> You must check the size but a coold idea may be the magnesium Dino206 rims: you'll find some good one in the Heller or Airfix 206 Competizione. A red or black Spider nart with yellow magnesium rims..... zzlurppp
