Alfa Romeo Tipo 33 Stradale: Chassis complete

I'm calling the chassis and interior done, with the exception of a bit of tidying up of paint here and there. The wheels are on and it sits square.



It looks good next to the TZ1. The Tipo 33 racers were the spiritual successors to the TZ1 and TZ2, initially with a four cylinder but eventually with the lovely V8 shown here.



Next will be the body which will require some decisions.



One option will be to pose it all with the body off, in order to display the front portion of the chassis; another will be to cut off the front body section so it can be hinged as well as the engine cover (which seems to have, for MFH, a relatively sturdy hinge mechanism as standard).



The interior is pretty simple. I may decide to add some toggle switches to the console.


Up next: The Revell BMW 507, which needs to be complete by August 1 as part of a build-off hosted by The New Modelers Club on Facebook. The body for the 33 may get put off somewhat while I decide what to do about the front clip. Stay tuned!
