MG B Targa Florio 1966
Three MG B Roadsters with hard tops fitted were taken to Sicily for the Targa Florio, one as a practice car and two for the event. Both race cars are offered as decal options here and they were identical apart from numbers and registration plates, with red bodywork and white roofs. The wire wheels are in kit form and the assembly of these is the most fiddly part of otherwise straightforward builds of the cars which finished first and second in class.

About K & R Replicas
Well cast and easy to build, if rather crude, metal kits. Usually accurate though occasionally a bit odd. Wire wheels of the self - assembly type. Decals, when included, often slightly yellow (typical of many English makers) but will bleach with exposure to u.v. light. Now including a little more photo-etch. Made in England.
