Hi Brian, Will for sure be keeping an eye on this one !! Randy

Hi Martin, That dash fits in there great. Really like your suspension work !!! Randy

Hi Tim, The heads look just perfect !! It is so much fun sitting back and watching you create this Randy

Hi Joe, Looking good here Joe, hope you get happy with those door panels ! Nice looking job on that fan. Randy

Hi Scott, Those pipes look spot on buddy !!! Maybe put that driver on a high in carbs diet??? Randy

Hi Ray, This thread is awesome!!!!!! Watching you machine these parts is very informative. Appreciate the effort you take to document your progress. The parts look great. Randy

Hi Folks, Shaun, Thank you and here is what I used... Thank Scott! Hi Ben, Thanks, have you started yours yet? Thanks Tim !! You guys are too kind with the comments on the paint. Have yet to finish up that part. Some progress to show... Some reference shots taken from the LaFerrari parts catalog. .... Made the decision to simplify the plumbing of the four different oil coolers that are mounted behind the screens in front of the rear wheel tubs. I will run the piping directly to the coolers and not try to model the various values, filters and manifolds that you can see in the diagrams. The engine oil cooler is the larger one on the passenger side. I ran lines between the oil pump on the lower right side of the motor block to the cooler then from the cooler to the oil reservoir. The transaxle has two sets of lines. One set runs from the left side rear of the transaxle over the top of the transaxle then up to the smaller cooler on the right side. The second set runs from the left side of the transaxle by the axle and up to the smaller (upper) cooler on the left side. The big square box gets lines running to the second cooler on the left side. Using the braided lines from 'Pro-Tech' . Ferrari does not use the standard A&N fittings for these lines. I made my versions using some plastic nut, bolt and washer castings from Tichy , nickel silver tubing from Albion and some copper colored nuts from RB Motion. Thanks for looking in! Randy

Hi Chris, Love that mag box but lets get back to work here buddy Randy

That is such a cool looking part. Your skills are just over the top my friend!!!! Randy

Hey John, Good to see a new build from you my friend !!! It will be a treat to watch you work your magic on this one. Randy

Hi Kerry, This is getting fun now !!! Love the body mods going on. Randy

Hi JC, This is a superb build you have going on here !!! Randy

Hi Martin, This has the makings of a very cool looking car !!! You are showing some fine skills with that saw Randy

I'm loving this one Richard, the rust and weathering is superb!!! Randy

I think your tires are about as good as you are going to find JC, works for me The stance looks just right. Randy

Now that's a nice build out of the box my friend! Randy

Hi Mike, At least you got one done ! It really looks pretty good in the photos. I thought I was the only one that pulled that trick with Tamiya Thin! Randy

Well done Ashley!! I like all the blue Ferraris. Randy

Hi Mark, That is a great looking model. The panel lines are just right with the white paint. Randy

Hi Tim, It appears I missed an update with the ribs!!!! They definitely give the block the proper look, well done sir. Thank you for posting the reference and then your drawings and finally the machining. Of course it is a bit scary to get a glimpse of how your mind works This is an awesome update! Randy

Hi Folks, Thanks Paul! Hi Chris, Thanks buddy! (belated Happy Birthday) Thank you Brian! Scott, I knew what that part was, I just didn't want to use big words so you folks north of the border could follow along Ben, Did not know they made one for this kit! I got the Tamiya add on set... Hi Dennis, Thank you for commenting ! Thanks Tony!! Hey Tim, Appreciate it! Hi Gerry, I have seen the yellow and white ones and like them both. Hi Ryan, Thanks for following! Hi Fabrizio, Thank you my friend! Busy with summer stuff but the weather has been good and got some paint on this one... Will let this dry out for a few days and then I have some clean up work to do. I really struggled with the candy paint job keeping an even finish on all the separate body pieces. Will see how it looks with the decals on it. Thanks for looking ! Randy

Hi Tim, The oil pan and the valley cover are both awesome my friend!!!! Are you going to super glue and pin these ally parts together on final assembly? Randy

Hi Mark, Beautiful paint and decal on both of your cars! Randy

Looking good Fabrizio !!!! Randy

Hi Richard, This is shaping up to be another really cool build from you!! Somehow I knew you would figure out a way to make it rusty Randy
