Cover gallery

On the top left are two hand-built Ferrari 312 B2s by Tron Club with the #4 car being Jackie Ickx' winner of the German GP in 1972 (ref CLU045) and #9 being Clay Regazzoni's sister car (ref CLU045B). The super-looking blue Ferrari 246 Dino is Phil Hill's 1959 Sebring GP mount and is from Tron's SMM range - ref SMM030MC whilst the fine Jagermeister-sponsored orange BMW M3 is from the DTM of 1992 when it was driven by former racing motorcylist Wayne Gardner. Competition 43 make this model and it's their reference COM050MA - see the review on page 27. The Austin Healey 100/4 from the Le Mans 24-Hours of 1953 streaking across the lower left hand corner is a refreshing hand-built only new release from Starter and has their reference ST0186M.


On the top right of our cover this time is Feeling 43's amazingly high detail Maserati A6 GCS (ref FEL008) - one of our models of the month which you can read more about on pages 4 and 5. Below that is a delightfully different Provence Moulage new release in the form of the colourful 1953 Studebaker Starline (ref PM2653) Carrera Panamericana. The excellent Matra MS11 below is the 1968 Dutch GP car of model enthusiast Jean-Pierre Beltoise. It's made by Tenariv as their ref TEN121. The slighly bizarre-looking Ferrari 250LM with its engine cover-mounted spare wheel is from the 1969 Tour de France. Superbly made by Heco this hand-built only model has the reference HEC365. Bringing up the base of the right hand column is Ugo Fadini's latest LSR masterpiece (ref FAD012B). It's the Spirit of '76 Gale Bank Engineering car of Al Teague and only 100 examples are being made.
