    I think so...... i guess i'm going to have to drill a small hole and insert said pin. Then on the other piece drill another hole for the other end of the pin to go into. Glue them together and jobs a goodun! I may glue another pin below the strut to give extra support. will have to paint it black to match the other parts. regards Pedro

    Thanks for the reply Yves. Please see the pics above. It is the front left bottom brace. I have glued it previously and then put the car back together again and within a few mins, it broke again... these models are not exactly light. The strut on the same side, but rear has also broken. I will have to re-glue it and then put the spring back on it. The model had been in pieces for a while as i just havent had any time to work on it. In fact, i thought i'd lost two of the tyres, but they were inside the cockpit. This was my only 1:12 scale model, as i collect 1:18. Thanks in advance for your suggestions and guidance. regards Pedro

    Hi Yves, nice job on the F1. I too have a Silver one, but possibly a later 1:12 version as it says Minichamps on the box. One of my front suspension arms was broken and i need to repair it but my modelling skills are not the best... Thought of 3D printing the parts but not sure how feasible that would be. Would be great to chat if and when you have a moment. I'm in the United Kingdom. Kind regards Pedro
