Holden LC Torana

[Cool Hand]

Basically a box stock build, with a few minor changes.

I 3D printed the wheels, file from Z Force Model Worx and tyre file from Morries Kustoms. And painted with Alclad polished Aluminum.

Opened the grill and installed photo etched mesh from KA models

Steering wheels is from a DDA Holden HQ GTS Monaro kit

I 3D printed the custom triple inlet manifold which was a special one of design from Slowys Models.

I also 3D printed the triple Weber carburetors and air filters, files from Scale Auto Model Works which were re scaled to fit the engine bay. 

The 6 cylinder distributor was sourced from Iceman Collections

BMF applied to window trim and tail light trim

Side shark gill vents were opened with a .4mm drill and Crazy Modeler photo etch saw blade.

All other chrome work is SMS paints Hyper Chrome Dark Tone.

G’day Luke, beautiful looking Torana. Superb in every aspect, however I really love that engine bay, having owned a couple of early Holdens with triple Weber carbs back in the day, it really strikes a chord with me. Top stuff. 👍🏻

Thank you for the kind words.

I try to put some thought into each build to make it different. So appreciate you acknowledging that.
