TransAmMike Posted January 17, 2021 Share Posted January 17, 2021 Wow Kenneth, looks great, especially like the engine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpnuts Posted January 17, 2021 Author Share Posted January 17, 2021 Things will slow down on this for a while as I'm waiting for a flasher circuit board for the indicators, some fibre optics for the dashboard and some switches to operate all the lights, all due mid to late February. Anyway here is the next update on this awesome kit.

kpnuts Posted January 19, 2021 Author Share Posted January 19, 2021 Well the fibre optics arrived ahead of schedule so I tried them out, well pleased with the results got 2 more to add for the indicators but have to wait for the flasher circuit board.

kpnuts Posted January 24, 2021 Author Share Posted January 24, 2021 Well I've wasted all weekend trying to get flashing indicators to work (I even bought so called flashing leds, which they didnt) so I've admitted defeat it won't have operating indicators, heres the next installment of the GT40 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kpnuts Posted January 25, 2021 Author Share Posted January 25, 2021 There is 1 other thing missing from this kit, there is no indicator stalk (which is also the main beam ) luckily its a very simple set up so easy to scratch build also the steering shaft is too long and protrudes too far into the cabin (unfortunately I don't have the equipment to alter that but if you had a mill you could)Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kpnuts Posted February 7, 2021 Author Share Posted February 7, 2021 This is what happens when you know next to nothing about electronics i ordered the wrong switches they only turn the lights off if you keep them pressed, ive ordered some on off toggle switches hope that works.
