momentary distraction
or just a break fr the Delage ...
Michael Portaro - aka Indycals - has a shapeways page with his 3D printed parts
including a kits of parts for the Merit Alfa 158
Michael has some issues with the new shapeways pricing policies - but we'll leave this issue aside for the moment
the kit is intended to build the Merit Alfa kit without major structural change to the kit - and the 3D grill is awesome
therefore:
the parts look great - but the engine block was designed to fit like the kit block and use the kit exhaust pipe
problem is - the engine block on the Merit kit was about four scale inches too long - why ?? - who knows
this was the first attempt to produce a detailed 1/24th kit of Grand Prix car - and the design is nearly sixty years old - so I guess no one complained ..
