Cover gallery
Two Alfa Romeos dominate the top row of our cover this issue. On the left is one of the very attractive new hand builts from Alfa Model 43, the 6C 2500SS Ala Spessa from the Targa Abruzzo 1939 (AM430212). To the right of the 6C we move forward 64 years to the stunning 8C Competizione concept, coming soon from ABC Brianza as a kit (BRK43208) or hand built (ABC208).
Lining up on row two, the rather unusual looking white machine is the 1953 Pegaso Z103C Bisiluro offered as a ‘die-cast’ by Bizarre (BIZ127). The bright orange machine alongside brings us bang up to date and is, we think, one of the best looking cars from the 2005 Le Mans 24 Hours. It’s the Racing for Holland Dome-Judd and is made as a kit (PMA0070) and hand built (PMA0070M) by Provence Miniatures Automobiles.

We have another 2005 machine on row three, BBR’s interpretation (BBP372 - kit, BBG286 - built) of the Red Bull Maserati MC12 from the FIA GT Championship. The red single seater to the right is Tameo’s kit (TMK344) of Regazzoni’s 1970 Italian GP-winning Ferrari 312B, built by FSW reader and contributor Chris Clay. More from Chris on this kit in a future issue.
Finally we have two larger scale models. The Lancia D50 is in 1:12th scale and is due any day from MG Models and this kit (MGMP1234) offers three options from the 1955 Monaco GP including Ascari’s practice car (MGM1234MA). Last but by no means least, a model that we have been eagerly awaiting finished photos of, Model Factory Hiro’s kit (HIR24076) of the AC Cobra Daytona.
