Taking a Ferrari 250 GTO & Daytona Competizione for lunch! | Kidd in a Sweet Shop


Recommended Posts

The latest (2013) issue of Revell’s GTO (car turned to right on boxart)  has correct decals for Nick Mason’s car as it appears in the video. The only thing lacking is the front license plate, but that can be obtained from elsewhere or made. Previous Revell issues (car turned to left on boxart) do not include these decals, although the instructions do mention his car (as delivered in 1977 - the car has changed livery since). 
I have the earlier issue of the GTO, sans decals for this version of the car, and the Italeri Daytona Competizione. I may have to source some decals and build these two beauties. Does anyone make the decals for the Daytona?

I have the Gunze, Fujimi and Protar kits of the GTO, have not splurged on the Revell kit because my experience with that brand is negative.  I found a source of decals on eBay, out of Spain, so I ordered #22.

Protar and Revell are the same kit, Italeri also I believe.

Geez...half my kingdom for a woman who not only isn't terrified of "excessive" speed, but who can wring a machine out all by herself.

I didn't know they ever made those...

EDIT: well, 'cept for Patty Wagstaff and Danica.

Don't forget the late great Sabine Schmitz, queen of the Nürburgring.
