Hi, my name is Tim Jones, from Sour Lake, Texas. My first love is Indycars, but F1 and sports cars have also been among my favorites...

This is the Fisher Model & Pattern Works resin kit; it is simple but VERY well done...

I am guessing the missing head rest and cut down windshield were to lower weight and cut down wind resistance...

This matched the best finish at Lemans for Briggs Cunningham (also 3rd in '53 w/ the C5R)...

Comments & suggestions welcome...thanks for looking!
Kind regards,
Tim
