Airfix Bentley Blower in 1/12
maysula replied to maysula's topic in Other Racing: Road Racing, Salt Flat Racers
Thanks! They are open, old kit but not so bad. -
Hi I decided to try to build this kit oob, but I did some detailing. Mostly rivets , bolts , hoses,wires, and some other stuff. Modified the headlights protection shield, made a shield in the front too. The exhaust got a new support. Painted with Tamiya spraycan TS9. The bodypart is painted with an airbrush, a mix of Humbrol 3 and black then satin varnish. The leather straps works :-) A very old kit with lack of details but not so bad :-) Thomas

Thank you very much ! I´m very glad you liked it :-) I saw Peters build and it was amazing ! I recall he did some modifactions on the engine and some other nice stuff too. Thomas -
Hi.I built this kit many years ago, I think the kit is great ! Plenty of room for detailing. If I built it today , I probably added much more stuff :-) Thomas

The kit is good! No major problems at all, some errors in the manual regarding painting, better follow your refs. The valve springs need to be replaced, looks toyish.The seat in the kit is wrong compared with the original one in the car today. I´m glad you like it :-) My problem just now is to get the pictures right :-( -

Hi More work on the engine, replaced the valve springs with steel thread, far from perfect but it will do. Installed a bunch of sparkplugs and the ignition cables. The fuel lines are also replaced with a little thinner one. Brass color is Alclad polished brass, works fine. Thomas -

maysula replied to maysula's topic in Other Racing: Road Racing, Salt Flat Racers
Hi Skip The shift lever is scratched with a alurod and leftovers from the scrap box. And you are right regarding the parkingbrake ! As I said, a real sh*t model !! The manual said it should be between the seats, but when looking at my refs I can see it should be to the left of the seat, I wasn´t aware of this at all :-( -

Just a few interior pictures, the spinners came from an old bburago kit, locked nearly as the original. -

maysula replied to maysula's topic in Other Racing: Road Racing, Salt Flat Racers
Hi Skip and thanks :-) The grille was awful! I used this tool on the picture, maybe it´s called a scriber ?! I gently cut off the star on the top and bottom, and also replaced the middle grill "wings" with plastic card. Also I used a saw to make the star cylinder shorter the I put mesh behind it, I hope you understand what I mean :-) Thomas
