I haven't posted for a coon's age. This little project is is two bodies, one of resin the other a vac-formed construction. The resin body is number 12 by Sakura, a Japanese slot car body and number 7 is a Russkit slot car body copy. Different modes of engineering...The BT20 will be Jack's French GP winner and the BT22 of Chris Irwin at the British GP. I have to reach deep into my "sparesbox" for rear suspenion pieces.

Nice to see you still doing incredible work on making "toys" into replicas. I love the green and gold BT22 but they all look great. Looking forward to more updates from you! Jordan

Nice work Patrick on all thos Brabhams. I am hoping we might get a 1/24th BT44 from Hachette someday. Already have a fantastic BT46 fancar from them. With some small work it looks like a top quality build.
