I will use scrap trash, some of..somethings.. just largely modified bottom and parts of 179 scrap (90/modification)

after a couple of month of work on it the result is coming. For the V12 i will use moulded parts ol Protar base, and i will considerably try to improve it and why not??? MAKE IT IN METAL!!!! (zamac)



5 angles for the tank with modification

Front work with different crashbox. Not definitive cause bad angle on floor

Large cutting of the old 179 shape. the nose cone is literaly reduced in large, like the mastercouple

You re-cast the new engine in metal from the old Protar master? Wow, nice job Cedric.

My wife's mother has also beaten this disease in 2018. I am very happy for you and your family. Congratulations to you both.

I love the 182 shape and color schemes on that bodywork. Someday I would also like to do this car, I have James' wonderful 1/20 kit in my stash.

Best regards,
AJ

Great to see you bringing a new project for our enjoyment!!
And greater yet for the continued health of your wife. We're all pulling for you and your family.

The Alfa is off to a rocket start, and coming together beautifully. Looking forward to seeing more of your progress.

Cheers,
Chris
