Sticking with the wee little Italians, I figure it's time to start this resin kit from Profil 24. This predecessor to the TZ did poorly at Le Mans in 1963, with two DNFs and a DSQ (for a premature oil change). I'll build up car #34, which lasted 155 laps (16 hours) before the gearbox failed.
The engine is the lovely 1570 cc twincam, not yet tilted over as it was in the TZ.
Interestingly the kit has inner door panels but also doors, which would
require careful cutting of the body to open up; ideally hinges would
have to be made as well. I am tempted.
Stay tuned as I get a new blade in my Xacto knife. What's the worst that could happen!
