Abarth 2000 Targa Florio 1973 #11 by Arena
The core parts in these three kits are basically the same and the basis is a very cleanly cast and crisply engraved bodyshell. The chassis plate with integral engine moulded in will need a little clean up but the fiddly engine parts are at least clean. There is a fair amount of visible detail in the cockpit and underneath and while the instructions are helpful for the former, you’re pretty much on your own with the latter. Visually the most exciting is the #24 machine and this will need a simple two-tone paint finish. It was also the most successful, being classified twenty third overall, albeit a lap down. Arena’s photos of the completed models show them to be pretty accurate when compared with the many photos of each car to be found on the excellent Targapedia.com.

About Arena
Accurate, well detailed resin kits with white metal ancillaries and excellent photo-etched details. Instructions sometimes slightly vague but normally adequate. Castings on some subjects can be a little rough but more recent releases have all been excellent. Due to the amount of etch, they can be quite fiddly to build but in experienced hands make excellent miniatures. Hand built models also available to order. Made in Italy.
