  1. Sometimes I use a jewelers file, sometimes a weed rasp.
  2. Ha! If I had a cad file of this, I would print it and it would literally snap together. And I've done it - see my Fiat Supersonic.
  3. Implant surgery complete.
  4. Four of these bodies were built; here is some info from coachbuilt.com: https://www.coachbuild.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=1786
  5. Maybe, maybe not.
  6. The nose is easy, it's the rear that's hard.
  7. Check my drawing, which I've done in 1/24th to help visualize the model and dimension the parts I will replace. The roof and the rear of the model will be built of high density urethane.
  8. Not close enough.
  9. A comparison of the size of the two cars. I'll have to stretch the resin body, one way or another.
  10. I have started a WIP thread about modifying an Airtrax 1967 Ferrari 330 GTC to the de Rethy 330 GTC Speciale.
  11. On the workbench: Modifying an Airtrax Ferrari 330 GTC coupe to the magnificent Princess de Rethy 330 GTC Speciale.
  12. For those interested in buying, here is a Facebook page for testing resin printers, it's very informative: https://www.facebook.com/groups/theslachannel/?ref=bookmarks
  13. The 1//24th kit was made by Marcelllo Figliozzi several years ago and is very good. Don't know if it would be available, PM me for his email.
  14. Are you interested in a model of that Maserati clone or a Maserati A6G? A Maserati A6G in 1/24 has been produced. I see no reason to make a model of the clone.
  15. Produced by Umi Modelwerks about 25 years ago, 1949 Ferrari 166MM. Ferrari's first le Mans winner.
  16. I have emailed him, should show up here soon.
  17. Leather seats - difficult to work when wrapping around corners. Wrinkles. Easier to work in 2 dimensions.
  18. Airtrax makes a 1/24 Cortina.
  19. Work in progress in computer, 1951 Ferrari 340 America - 1951 MM winner, to be 3d printed.
  20. Ferrari 340 Mexico, 1/24th scale by ABC.
  21. Early Ferrari? This is almost as early as you can get.
  22. Here's a pic of the Airtrax Ferrari 330GTC. I've filled the pinholes and primered it. It's a beautiful car and a good kit. For the Airtrax price list, Mr. Obsessive posted it on another thread, easy to find using the search function.
  23. Superb work!
  24. Since we've been discussing scanning, here is an example of a full scale scan that has been output as a model. I can't tell the scale or if it was cut out by cnc or 3d printed but I thought it may interest some of you guys. BTW, that stl file can be downloaded and printed; anyone for a 1973 Ranchero model? I have tried to do this at concours by taking lots of photos but the bright reflections ruined the production of the mesh. The light has to be broad and subdued, as on a cloudy day.
