Protoform F1-Thirteen/F1-Fourteen Formula 1 Bodies

Protoform F1-Thirteen/F1-Fourteen Formula 1 Bodies

With scale Formula 1 seeing great success in recent months, Protoform has decided to jump into that area with the release of two new Lexan F1 shells, the F1-Thirteen and F1-Fourteen.

Based on the real 2013 F1 cars, the F1-Thirteen will fit most modern F1 chassis equipped with Tamiya’s F2012 Front wing (#51524 / #51525). To keep to the scale appearance, the upright nose support of the wing is removed and an additional body post and 40mm M4 screw are included.

The F1-Forteen is modeled after the current F1 cars (2014). It features a unique front that can be trimmed to use as a standard nose or a separate extended cone can be added.

Both bodies feature an overall low-slung look, detailed driver’s helmet and a decal sheet that sports seatbelt, steering wheel, car numbers and a variety of helmet visor colors.

Product ID : 1537-30 – F1-Thirteen, $28.00
Part #: 1538-30 – F1-Fourteen, $28.00
