Hello Regga,

Amazing job as always!

Are you planning to release a super detail set as you did with the 956 or is it too soon to tell? If so, I'm definitely in!!!


Regards!

Hello, everyone!

This time, I build rear suspension. There is the parts which I made last time. However, I wanted a better thing and remade them.


Tie rod, Brakes cooling duct support, Shock absorber. Coil spring is a commercial product.

Image

Image

Image

Because some parts were completed, I cast it.
Image

Image

I add some rods to an upper arm of the suspension.
Image

Image

Casting again.
Image

Image

Resin cast parts is completed.
Image

Image

Image

Image

Photo etching parts outside order now. If it arrives, all parts are completed.


Next work is 1988 962C 3.0L all water cooled engine.

The part of the cylinder block is cast.
Image

Image

Image

The details of the crankcase are added from now on.
Image

Image
