| This is one of the nicest "garage" kits I've ever seen, almost a "Tamiya' of resin casters. To start with, the packaging is top-notch, with a sturdy, well-padded box. The body casting is securely wrapped in bubble wrap and the white-metal parts come in a neat little plastic box. The photoetched parts and decals are stored flat under the bottom piece of foam. |

| There's not a LOT of resin in this kit, however. The only resin parts are the body, the chassis, and the tires. The quality of the resin is very good, and appears to be very workable. The remainder of the castings are white metal, and includes things like the hood, trunk, some body parts, and pretty much everything else in the kit. The castings are very good, and the test fitting I've done seems to show that it will go together very well. |

The remainder of the kit is made up of three frets of photoetch, a handful of turned aluminum, and the vacuform for the windsheld and headlight covers, along with a few lenses for the headlights and tailights. The wire wheels are going to look fantastic, and I've notice that MFH is going to be selling the wire wheels and the resin tires as a seperate product. This will be a great alternative to the MG wheels for those of you who want to build a GTO or other classic Ferrari. |

| The instructions are laid out very well, and includes color diagrams for the two variants so you can place the decals accurately. I plan on doing a build diary of this car as I work through the assembly. This kit is definitly in my top 10 or 20. |
