Only know of a couple of Gee Bee kits in 1/72nd scale. AModel from Poland makes a Gee R1 Super Sportster and a Gee Bee R2. Only Gee Bee Z I have seen has been put out by Williams Bros and it is in 1/32nd scale.

The closest you'll get is 1/75.

Re: GeeBee R-1

If 1/48th scale would not bother you to much. First Gear puts out probably the best looking diecast Gee Bee on the market.

Not sure if you are interested, but they also make a fairly sharp looking Wedel Williams racer.

I'm not familiar with that one. Any pics? I've looked on ebay for the First Gear Gee Bee but no joy.

Here is a picture of my Gilmore version. I think Pete's Collectibles carries these.

Wink Re: GeeBee R-1

Nice, but I reckon the Gee Bee is way cool though. After seeing yours I think I may just need one.

Gee Bee is definitely the better of the two.
