I like your choice of red. Very good looking Ferrari.

Well done.  I like the way you handled the dash especially.  Thanks for sharing with us.

Tamiya Mica "Ferrari" Red.  A more modern finish than it would've painted in the 60s, but I still like it.

That is lovely- especially in that mica red. I was not aware of this kits existence.

Monogram during that period had that car as well as many others as shells for their slot cars 1/32 scale . .i had this car as a slot car body during that period . My first was the Lola MK6 GT . 2 laps and all the small parts flew off !!

Painted the dials white first, then used a set of decals from a Ferrari 250 GTO that was already in the box. 

Steering wheel is Model Master leather and buttons are Tamiya lacquer black, applied with an Alpha Abrasives disposable micro-brush www.alphaabrasives.com
