Deckerz Posted June 13, 2011 Posted June 13, 2011 Im trying to find out which 1/24 or 1/25 kits have a transaxle, like engine in the front, transmission at the back, i think the revell corvette zr1 has it but im not sure, any other kits that have it or can i get a resin one from somewhere?
sjordan2 Posted June 13, 2011 Posted June 13, 2011 (edited) Many of these, but not all, are available in kit form. Of course, it would be wise to check on how much detail is available in a given kit. Maybe someone else here could give you tips about that. * 1964–1968 Ferrari 275 * 1963-1968 Ferrari 330 * 1968–1973 Ferrari Daytona * 1972–1987 Alfa Romeo Alfetta * 1974–1987 Alfa Romeo GTV/Alfa Romeo GTV6 * 1976–1988 Porsche 924 * 1976–1991 Volvo 300 series * 1977–1985 Alfa Romeo Giulietta * 1978–1995 Porsche 928 * 1982–1995 Porsche 944 and Porsche 968 * 1984–1987 Alfa Romeo 90 * 1985–1992 Alfa Romeo 75 * 1989–1991 Alfa Romeo SZ * 1992–2003 Ferrari 456 * 1993-2002 Toyota Supra * 1996–2005 Ferrari 550/575M * 1997–up Chevrolet Corvette * 1997–1999 Panoz Esperante GTR-1 * 1997-2002 Plymouth Prowler * 1998-2005 Shelby Series 1 * 2003-2006 Chevrolet SSR * 2003–on Aston Martin DB9 * 2004–on Ferrari 612 Scaglietti * 2004–on Maserati Quattroporte * 2005–up Aston Martin V8 Vantage * 2006–up Ferrari 599 GTB Fiorano * 2008-up Alfa Romeo 8C Competizione * 2009–up Lexus LF-A * 2010-up Mercedes-Benz SLS AMG [edit] Edited June 13, 2011 by sjordan2

sjordan2 Posted June 13, 2011 Posted June 13, 2011 (edited) Any of the full detail Revell C5 or C6 Corvette kits will have a transaxle. Its part of the engine piece in the kit. rob Question: How is a transaxle part of the engine piece since it's at the back with the rear axle? Is it molded as a single part with the engine, driveshaft and transaxle? Edited June 13, 2011 by sjordan2
george 53 Posted June 13, 2011 Posted June 13, 2011 (edited) The engine block, trans/torque tube an trans are all molded together as one piece. Edited June 13, 2011 by george 53

MikeMc Posted June 13, 2011 Posted June 13, 2011 (edited) These were stolen from the Z06 for this Cameo..the transaxle is in the rear connected by the Torque tube which "hides" the driveshaft This is a 1:1... see Skips picture...same idea..different model as its supercharged Edited June 13, 2011 by MIKE THE MANIAC
sjordan2 Posted June 13, 2011 Posted June 13, 2011 That's going to be a nice truck, Mike. Keep us posted on your progress.
Jim Gibbons Posted June 13, 2011 Posted June 13, 2011 I know the Revell Porsche 928 has one; I built the kit so long ago that I can't remember how good the chassis detail was, but if I recall, it was decent. Here's the Drastic Plastic instruction sheet for it: http://public.fotki.com/drasticplasticsmcc/instruction_sheetsh/instruction_sheets/revell-3/revell-porsche-928/
