Bocar XP5 - a 3D print

[kensar]

My next project is the Bocar XP5.  This was a racer made by Bob Carnes from Colorado in about 1959.  He offered complete cars and kits for homebuilders.  The XP5 was capable of almost 160 mph, which was quite  fast for 1959.  It was raced in Florida and came in second to a Jag D type.  Bob made about 20 cars before his shop burned down, ending production of Bocars.  It was powered by either a Corvette engine or a Pontiac engine.

I am about to start printing, so I should be posting some building shots soon.

This will be a quicky curbside model.  Not all the parts are shown in the renderings above.

Hi Ken, this will be good, partly because it's 3D printed and secondly because the Bocar's are an obscure vehicle.  I enjoy building 3D printed.  I have a couple of books that have articles on Ken's cars.

Very interesting project.
