Lancia-Ferrari D50 Belgium/UK 1956 #2/3 by Renaissance
As the part number stem suggests, the original base of this kit goes back some time but it still stands up well today. The main body parts are cleanly cast in resin and capture the shape of the later D50 with enclosed tanks and long nose very well. The suspension parts include a fair amount of etch and can be a little fiddly, but otherwise this will be a fairly straightforward build. Three decal options are included, from Spa there’s Fangio’s #2 car and from Silverstone the choice of #2 driven by Collins or #3 shared by Castelloti and de Portago.

About Renaissance
Excellent kits and conversion sets (for plastic) using resin bodies, white metal parts, lots of very fine photo-etching and good decals. Some castings need cleaning. Excellent instructions. Classic subjects (REN43 refs) are relatively simple builds, while the Integral series (RENI) of more modern subjects are a little more complex. Made in France
