Guest arni Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 Something a little mad I made recently,the front and rear body sections and the tubular chassis was scratch built from a combination of Plastruct,Evergreen and sheet styrene.The front/rear suspension and engine/transaxle are from a Revell FerrariF430 as are the wheels. The 'milk churns' which are twin fuel tanks started off as 1:35 oil drums with the lids made from 1:1 licence plate screw caps! It was sprayed VW Brilliant orange and a few 426ci decals added for a laugh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragline Posted September 24, 2009 Share Posted September 24, 2009 Absolutely original and wonderful. Beautiful execution and even the color seems right. Best thing I've seen done with an Italian since that blind date I went on last year. Bob F Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

James Flowers Posted September 25, 2009 Share Posted September 25, 2009 Love it. Best scratch built I have see in awhile. Totally out of the ordinary. It is amazing what a fertile mind can come up with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
