Great pair of photos. Same car?

Well, as I say, it's a nit-pick. Minor stuff, and unnoticeable to most. The cylinders on each cylinder bank of the Ardun are arranged in pairs, the cylinders in each pair being a mirror image of each other in terms of valve train/rocker arm configuration. A v-8 engine will have two of these 'pairs' on each side of course, and a v'12 would have three of these 'pairs'. For a v-12 such a configuration would have spark plugs arranged thus; oo oo oo. With significant and unnecessary re-working of the valve train you could possibly have a plug arrangement of oo o o oo, but in the real world no one would do this. The spark plug configuration on the 3D printed v-12 Ardun is ooo ooo. If numbering the cylinders on one side 1-6 from front to back, cylinder 1 would have one plug, cylinder 2 would have two plugs, cylinders 3 & 4 would have no plugs, 5 would have two and 6 would have one. It's all a bit pedantic, really, but I noticed when viewing the photos. The vast majority will likely not know the difference. By no means do I wish to detract from your stellar build. Cheers.

Beautiful build. Love it!

Good looking car. Nice clean build.

Sweet looking 7 litre.

Wow. Very impressive work, especially your tin work. Cool project, I dig your vision. The car has nice lines and a great look. One unfortunate nit-pick is the plug spacing on the Ardun. They should be arranged as three groups of two. Looking forward to watching this build come together.

Amen!

Very impressed with your brass work. Nice looking chassis. I missed the earlier bits, but I’m watching now.

Great project. Very nice work. I hope this one is still on the bench.

I’m glad to see this project back on the bench. Cool car.

It’s coming along nicely. The two kits I ordered arrived on Wednesday. The new additions to the kit are nicely done and quite welcome.

Nice work!

That’s looking good. The colour matches well.

I think the company you are looking for is Yodel. I have not seen these in person, but my understanding is they are quite basic, though if I recall, they look good built up.

It’s good to see these built. Great work on yours.

The newly tooled wheels look great may be worth the price of admission. I may buy one, rob the new wheels, and sell the rest.

Very interesting project. I'm watching this one.

Sorry to hear of your woes, but that thing is looking great up on its wheels.

Cool style. Is the dual carb flattie the final choice?

Looking good so far. I have always been curious about this kit, and almost bought one several times. It looks like a decent kit, cheesy headlights notwithstanding.

Very cool project. Been following since it started. Really digging your scratchbuilding. It's coming along great.

Very nice detail.

I got mine on Dec 24.

Love the look of this one. This is probably my favourite gasser kit, and you did a great job with it.
