How did you find the engine/gearbox fit? Did you get it to come out straight? Everytime I build one of these ancient Tamiya DFVs, damn things always come out askew.

Askew it is! Both exhaust extensions had to be shortened and the headers hugged the block too closely. Pic 53 will confirm I had the same issue as you. I have another P34 in the stash but I NEED to build a couple of bikes after I have completed a Bugatti Town Car.

Yeah, those old things are awful. I tried twice to do the Peterson version of this car and both times I wound up tossing that crap back in the box. At least with a bike kit theres no worry about thousand year old moulds.

A great job Peter. I like these older Tamiya kits as a back-to-basics in between build. I know they're not 100% accurate and lack a certain refinement.
But they do give me the opportunity to build kits from my youth, that I always wanted to build, but with a lot more skill on my side.

Martin, might have been from your youth but I was married with children by then! 🤣🤣🤣

It looks great as a model but definitely not my favourite F1 car, I think Tyrell had a very good relationship with Tamiya at the time.

If the model wasn't on a cutting board, i would have believed it was a 1/1 scale. Magnificent
