On 6 May 1906 the first edition of the Targa Florio got under way. It is still
considered by many to be the first real car race and an all-time great classic. It took
place next to the sea and on the narrow winding roads of the Sicilian mountains in
Italy and it passed through a couple of towns, including Colessano. In time the
buildings at the hairpin corner in Colessano would become a world renown
landmark. The names of local racing heroes were painted on many buildings in the
town and specifically at the hairpin. The Race Track Scenics collection of Targa
Florio buildings strive to recreate the ambiance of the trackside of the famous race
track with some buildings very close to replicas and certainly all in the style of
Collessano's architecture during the 60s and 70s of the previous century. RTS have
decided to name the different buildings in honour of Italian Targa Florio racers that
excelled over the years in the TF race. UMBERTO MAGLIOLI won the TF race
single handed in 1953 and 1956 and with Vic Elford in 1968. The third house on the
left side of the Via Isnello just after the hairpin (in the photo below), is the Umberto
Maglioli house.

for the undercoat of all parts works quite well from personal experience. You can choose the paint of your preference, whether it is oil or water based. Cleaning brushes and rollers are just so much easier if you use a water base paint. A chalk paste can give a unique finish to walls and give a weathered look if so desired. - Page 6 Now have a look at the diagram where all the laser cut parts are shown and numbered from A to S. Next, we will identify which is which and where they fit in. The front wall (A), the rear wall (B) and the side walls (C 1-2) fit into the foundation floor (F).

Start by gluing the three wall brackets (R 1-3) into the three slots at the back of the balcony floor (P) so that they are below the level of the floor. The front railing (N) and the two side railings (Q 1-2) can now be glued into the slots in the floor.
