Sign me up. I’ve always loved the 333. Gorgeous and great sounding car. Can’t wait to see this come together.

Something tells me this will be a lot nicer Ferrari than the one I'm working on.

Thanks for looking in guys. I got the main pieces together and drilled the holes to screw them together. Then I had to place the other bodywork on to get an idea of the size. Then I fitted the engine to the monocoque 55

Looking good! One of my all time favorite Ferraris! I've been hoping for decades to see it in 1/24 or 1/25 but all that are available are in the wrong scales 1/12, 1/18, 1/43... There was supposedly a resin version in 1/24 but I've never found it. Thanks, Ismael

WSC prototypes are so rare to be made into kits that I almost wanted to get this but I wasnt confident working with white metal or the price tag!! Looking forward to seeing this one.

Yeah, the price tag is a bit much. But I have seen people spend over $700 on a Tamiya 1/12 kit with the extras. And white metal is actually not that hard to work with.

I have come close to that on a couple of mine.

Chris, Just found your latest 1/12 scale super build, and I'm along for the ride as usual. I did notice that the kit has way less white metal then previous builds, especially the body. That should really help with some of the pesky white metal fit issues for major parts like the door panels.

The weather finally co-operated and stopped raining and got warmer, so I took advantage and primed the body panels. I have heard from other builders that to get your red to really pop, that you should use pink primer. This is my first try doing it this way. 323
