I saw a few on ebay, but can't find a complete listing of what they make. From what I can see the kits look really good and they have someinteresting selections. I thought I saw a Cooper too online somewhere as well. The Ferrari 166MM looks pretty good as well.

Those are Fernando Pinto models from Portugal. I have drooled over many of their offerings. There are complete kits and trans kits as well from what I understand. I haven't seen one myself but I a guy over another forum has done a few and say they are great. They can get pricey thou. He has a facebook page but I'm no longer on facebook.
Thanks, Ismael

Gentlemen: I built this Pinto kit... mb2501.proboards.com/thread/9081/1956-bugatti-251The kits are very nice...somehow he gets metal pieces into cast resin parts...some flash because of this...I also have the Auto Union D type and 1951 Ferrari F1 4.5 liter...he also posts and deletes his kits...if you contact him, he more than likely can make you a kit NOT showing up on EBay... Cars he has done: Auto Union C and D Virtually every Ferrari Mille Miglia winner Ferrari shark nose BRM 1962 Porsche Targa 56 and Carrera Panamericana 54 Cooper 59 and 60 world champs Stewart’s Marta world champs Ferrari LeMans winners from 49 to 60’s I will take some pictures and show the other kits I have...

BTW I saw that build Tim and it was excellent. I especially liked the color as well. I can't say I've heard of the way of mounting the engine in an F1 car either, so it was a great choice for an unusual subject. You must have quite a cool collection of cars !

Excellent models - I must have at least twenty of his kits. He has helped to fill gaps in my Le Mans collection. His pre-built wire wheels for pre-war models are exceptional.
