Hi,

The WIP restarts slowly... but surely.

​
 
Connecting session.
The gear box is now installed on the engine.
Done for rear with engine/oil filters, fuel connections, underside tubing from engine to radiator...

Next step will be the front radiator hoses and ducts installation and the rear drive train.

 





 
 
More soon.

Great work, Pascal.

Amazing work, as usual! How did you paint the seat? It looks very convincing.

[pgarat]

Hi,

Thanks.
The seat was painted with ZP semi gloss black, then oils and a light dry brush of Humbrol 85.

Good evening,

Thanks guys!
Well, of course, I lost a part ...
Not that small and yet nowhere to be found after a good part of the evening and the morning...

The part, the lower left anchor of the rear axle push bar (or tie rod ...), has been redone.
I quickly turned a piece of 2x2.25, glued to a plastic card base.
A 0.8 stainless steel tenon and a resin bolt to finish and install.
Quite a few mods and parts for the upper arms to do what I wanted, but it's done.

Sorry for the quality of the photos, but the episode "Carpet Monster" (and I don't even have a carpet!) Made me a little ... irritated.
I hope it will fit anyway.












More soon.

Bonjour,

A bit of cleaning in the working area...



Front end progress with radiator mounts and air scoops.
Rear completed with anti roll bar and exhausts.











More soon, maybe.

It begins to take shape.

[CelicaGT]

Excellent! You're getting close! I can't wait to see the finished model. Nice photography too.
