Sweet! Looking great!

Will work just fine with some adjustments 🙂 worse have been done great mockup!

yes, as far north you can get in the Baltic sea.

Nice looking Elco! I have a complete ‘74 front laying around exept doe lights and surrounds. But the cast corners for the round headlights. Was planing to put it on the ‘77 which had its front converter to 1973. But I never bought the car.

I believe Fujimi or aoshima also made these. Super simple kit though.

Made some tailpanel work. Pictures were taken at mid night.

Beautiful build! Great work

Thanks! Have not tried but I don’t have te time to try at the moment. I did however make a custom front out of my custom 74 and 75. A bit lower and more aero friendly.

Would be interesting I have two 1/16 kits started that I don’t get around doing so a new build off might do it. It was actually a build of that made me buy a 1/16 kit to begin with. But on Hiroboy forum.

So after trying to fitting the body I noticed that some thing was off. I think the rear portion of the body must have gotten twisted. So I will need to go with the other body I believe. I don’t see how I can fix that with the resin body, at least not here. If I put the other body on the chassis does look straight.

We have left for the summer cottage and I just grabbed a kit to build with a limited amount of parts and spares. So allot of compromises will be made. I have so far installed the rear end in the right position. Made a set of brakes. And sanded the wheels among other things.

It’s interesting how the AI states that ” I steered with” and sow on. And it have absolutely never even touched a plastic kit. This will be the end of reviews and such I am ready have a hard time with manny reviews that they are just rubbish and does not answer any thing.

Epic display it turned in to!!

Sweet!

Sweet! Be glad that you have junkyards close by with a lot of cars in it and that you are allowed to take stuff by yourself. Here the yards usually charge you half the price of a new part. Some times you can get parts for a decent price.

Just got me a project car after all. I got hold of a 2003 Cadillac CTS with the 3,2l v6 for almost nothing, 850usd. These are quite rare over here in Sweden. I Have not seen one IRL ever here were I live as I can recall so finding one in decent shape for a bargain was my lucky day. Previous owner had junked the last engine due to a cam belt failure and replaced the engine, but never bothered to connect a thing to the engine. So I have a puzzle to lay later when vacation ends. Interior is I great shape and the body is in decent shape except for some scuffmarks and a small rust damage on the right rear flare. Kids are interested and want to help so that’s fun!

Neat build! These are interesting looking, I wonder what the thought behind the shorter wheelbase was. Weight transfer?

Great work on that build! Keep it coming! And to all there is still plenty of time to get your build done or for anyone new to join in on the CBR!

Nice

Nice work!

Epic build! The decal work is so extensive so I would have given up long ago! But the end result is looking so good! And as part Brazilian, married to a woman from Brazil, and having two kids which are part Brazilian these colors makes me more proud and patriotic than my own colors, we Swedes are not that patriotic and don’t use our flag much. The Brazil 🇧🇷 scheme really makes it look great!

Looking great as usual! Keeping up!

Cool build mate!

That’s a tiny nut! It’s almost nuts how small some details are 😊
