Here we are at the end of another F1 season and with it the deadline for the historic F1 build competition. This is my entry to that competition. This car gave Bruce his first F1 win in a car bearing his own name and together with Denny Hulme managed a pair of 1-2 finishes in the 1968 season. They took 2nd place in the constructors title behind Lotus. So here's my efforts with one of Mclarens early successes. I've put a few pictures of the car then some scenes from the pits as it gets built up to race. !! Malc.File Attachment(s): RM1 attached the following image(s):

Wow! That is stunning work Malc and a clear contender in the competition. Excellent work on both the car and the pit scene, all very realistic and reminds me very much of the work of a well known internet F1 modeller who goes by the name of 'John W' and I can honestly say that what you've produced is in my eyes at least, as good as his!
Very well done Malc and good luck in the competition.
