This one is older. It was built for a contest theme "Non-V8" for the 2007 Little Wheelies Model Car Nats in Hannover/Germany. This Contest used to be a nice get-together of fellow modellers. Sadly it no longer exists. The good thing was, that modellers judged each other with no jury.

Since it was non-V8, my little 1:25 dude tries to make a V7 out of his Chevy...

I don´t know if it would work in 1:1;) but it was big fun to build!

Look what he´s reading (on the passengers seat).

Sorry for the somewhat crude photos, but they´re from 2007 as well.

Great diorama. Its a little late now but Chevrolet also had a 4.3 Liter v-6 engine at that time. It was very much like a 350 or 5.7 Liter v-8 with the two front cylinders cut off. It was a very good torque engine and gave good gas mileage as well. I like all of the detail you put into the engine and under the hood. Very realistic.

Maybe we should start a fund to send this guy to engineering school ... :D

That's a great looking dio and must have been a fund build!
