I have had a few David Reinicke kits in my  to do box, and decided to get on with it and build one . 

Back in 69 Chaparral built the 2 H which became known as the great white whale ans Initially John Surtees would not drive until the driver position was changed. Jim hall had been injured in the 2j which delayed the development of the 2H . Hall as a result bought a McLaren to race and make Surtees happy 

   

It is a wonderful kit - I added a slot.it chassis

Scalextric did a chapparel, first run and the wing flew off when car left the track, haha.

Looks like the slot car mimics the 1:1 version perfectly. Very authentic.

Cars with wings and things are for skilled drivers that don't have a lot of "offs".

Racers that have a lot of offs should consider racing a different car that has less chance of breaking.

Anthony - WOW!  That is a very nice build!  I'll have to go run mine now LOL!  

I had so much fun doing resins like this for years and am happy to see a kit even these long years later. 

Which reminds me:  I tossed those wing supports and went to brass LOL.  

Thanks so much for the memories and sharing a great build of a very interesting car!

Never liked that wing on the M12 , so, built mine without.

This one as the car ran at Mosport 1969 (sans wing),.......Jim Hall entry for Surtees.




And this one,  based loosely on the livery used by Vic Franzese on his M12 at Watkins Glen 1972.
