Chaparral 2G-L Prototype

07 May 2013 - 05:57 AM

This started as an original Hot Wheels Chaparral 2G casting that was “over-played-with” and the rear wing and engine cover were missing as well as the wheels being really worn out when I got it. 

I reworked it and scratch-built a new engine cover/scoop to replicate a rare Chaparral 2G-L Codalunga Prototype that was tested for Le Mans and intended to run in 1968, but since the chassis could not handle the power of the 427 it was deemed unsuitable for endurance racing and they never attempted to qualify it. 

I also made the decals for it.

Provence Moulage resin kit.  The other of two Tullius Jags I built as a pair…

Decals were one year less as old as the ’86 (like the kit) but were just as bad, also salvageable by clear coating before application.  Both greens on both cars needed some touch up.

Provence Moulage resin kit.  Decals were old (like the kit) but were salvageable by clear coating before application.  They still cracked, but were at least usable.  One of two Tullius Jags I built as a pair…

Old Provence Moulage resin 1/43rd kit built OOB.  I had to make a copy of one of the wheels as it was missing from the kit.  Decals were a bit brittle too, requiring some touch up.
