Tameo Kits latest release (TMK 448) is the March Ford 711 as driven by Ronnie Peterson at the 1971 Monaco GP. This subject is a favorite for modelers because of the unique front wing design. Let’s take a look at the kit….
Following Tameo’s typical approach, the kit includes cast metal and photo-etch parts, rubber tyres, various detail parts including metal rod and wire mesh, decals and full colour instructions.
Decals are sharply printed and include all of the recognizable sponsor markings for this eye-catching livery.
Decal placement guide gives an excellent overall indication of the completed model.
Kit parts unpacked and sorted for observation. While this is a standard kit, the level of detail cast into the parts is of a very high level and reflects many process and design innovations over the years.
Photo etch parts are included for components where this is the best design solution.
