Chris Smith Posted September 16, 2020 Author Share Posted September 16, 2020 I thought I was slacking, but nope, just doing other things. I have been slowly getting the tub where I need to. There is a lot of stuff that goes into it. The directions ask you to attach the tub to the rear engine cage. I decided not to, I don’t want to over handle everything and have something tragic happen. building the front frame took a wile to do, I am glad I used the tub as a jig, If I was gonna try without it, it would take forever. Hopefully I will get the tub painted and also the front frame soon. thanks for looking Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Smith Posted October 8, 2020 Author Share Posted October 8, 2020 So this is a small update. I forget how much you need to be three steps ahead to make sure everything fits as it’s supposed to. I got the tub drilled and painted, the front frame painted, fire extinguisher finished. Peddle assembly constructed and painted. trying to figure out the right color to paint the brake reservoirs, still need to build shocks and get the radiator together.

Chris Smith Posted October 30, 2020 Author Share Posted October 30, 2020 I was able to do a little bit on the Porsche. It has been slow going, but at least it’s still going. Thanks for looking Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris Smith Posted December 2, 2020 Author Share Posted December 2, 2020 I got the radiator installed. Decided not to use the supplied fittings and lines. I used some RB Motion fittings and some Pro Tech steel braided lines, for realism. I also decided not to paint the shocks. Just look at them, hiding them behind paint just seems wrong. the upper A frames where a pain to line up, but I got them.

Chris Smith Posted February 9, 2021 Author Share Posted February 9, 2021 Got the brakes done, it has been a long time getting this done... weather doesn’t help when you paint in the garage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill J Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 Amazing work on the Porsche! Really a work of art. The MFH kits are awesome but I have to say that seeing the work and attention it takes to build one, kind of makes me glad I can't afford a MFH kit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brudda Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 Hey Chris. This is all I have done on my Porsche. Part of the engine and tires and wheels. Tubes make me nervous. What’s the name of that therapist? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris Smith Posted February 10, 2021 Author Share Posted February 10, 2021 Bruce the engine looks great!!
