Scale-Master Posted August 7, 2013 Author Share Posted August 7, 2013 Thanks guys! It is 1/24th scale, so it'll be about 7 inches long with the wing. As far as the resin outgassing, this one was cast in the '90s, it should be done by now. And if you have a newer one, the added adhesion of a coat of paint before applying the foil will help a lot too. Back to working on the interior… Here is the finished dash assembly. And installed as well as the added brace. This is the finished chassis. Only what needs to be done for what can be seen from outside the body.

Davewilly Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Looks very nice. I always liked these cars...or ones of this era like the Chaparral's GT40's MkII Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scale-Master Posted August 27, 2013 Author Share Posted August 27, 2013 I'm with you Dave, that was a great era for these race cars... Been away from the bench for a while, but I got some time behind it yesterday and was able to put the clear on the body… Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scale-Master Posted September 8, 2013 Author Share Posted September 8, 2013 Thanks Guys! Onto the final assembly... I installed the windows first. Not a fan of windows that mount from the outside, but it is the way the car is. At least the scribed lines on the vac-u-formed windows are crisp and match the openings in the resin body.
