oh this is cool!
I didn't know there was a model of this car.
And now you are creating another one!
I think I will finally have to break down and build an F1 car model!
My cousin is Nigel Mansell!
No, not this one...but hes named after race car driver Nigel Mansell! lol
I met the real Mansell a few years back...just after he left Ferrari and moved to Indy Cars.
He was on promotional tour for K-Mart ( an Indy Car sponsor).
LOL I had him autograph a painting I did...of Gerhard Berger's Ferrari! lol
It was the only thing I had completed at the time!
Unfortunately I lost the signed artwork to a Sports dealer who ran off with a bunch of my artworks.
But I still have the K-Mart poster that Mansell signed for me.
I had followed his F1 career closely, so it was a big thrill to meet him.
I had switched my interest to Indy car racing in the 90s,
so it was very exciting to see him come to North America to live and race
and win the Indy car championship after winning the F1 championship!
