P. Depailler. Tyrrell 008 Sweden 1978

Another 1/20 Formula one car. I really wanted a Tyrrell 008 but as there isn't a plastic kit of it I had to settle for the Studio 27 Multi media kit.


I used the front wings from the Monaco version and the radiators on the top of the side pods from the Austrian version to build the Swedish GP car.


I made new front wing end plates and built new side skirts.


The front wheels were to big so I bought a set of MFH slicks for it and used the front rims of the Lotus 79 from MFH.


I must have missed when cleaning the resin body because the masking tape tore of the paint so I had to strip it and repaint it


But in the end it turned out OK. I like the look of this car. More of this on my home page.
