Here are cardan shaft, break chambers and I guess I can call it reactive bar: Common view All, except front springs, glued with Craft bond Radiator of the real thing And my version About rear whells spacers: they were made and instaled I've took some time to make sun visors and wind shild holders (marked with arrows) Some pattern parts to make power steering Vu-A-la!

DRIPTROIT 71 Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Wow!! Some incredible scratch building going on here!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hermann Kersten Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 (edited) Absolutely great scratch work what you showing here. The cardan shaft looks awesome, i also make them workable so that the cardan looks more natural instead of a lump of plastic. Hermann.

clayton Posted December 3, 2018 Share Posted December 3, 2018 Can't really see every thing on the right side. I guess it is to cut the torque of the steering in half,so the driver won't have to work so hard Like a helping hand. Or like a damper to absorbed the bumps. There is a word I'm looking for can't find it and can't spell it. Would like to know too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sergey Posted January 5, 2019 Author Share Posted January 5, 2019 (edited) Thank you, Friends! Kind a little "How To": Little triangles to connect crosmembers and subframe By the way, I often used right angles. For example red marked one to cover crossmembers, and green one acts as a guide for side walls When I assembled the frame, I've forgot that dumpers don't have tail crossmember. Insted it has right angle. So I was have to tear off crossmember and cut out a piece of frame. Here are profiles I used for dump hinge And here what it turned out And finally: hydro reservoir and hinge set up for hydraulic ram All I needed: right angle and sheet styrene Edited January 5, 2019 by Sergey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
