Modlbldr Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 Curious to know what kit this part came from. Do you recognize it? It is 1/24 or 1/25 scale and molded in an off white color. This piece is unpainted. Any help is appreciated. Later-
ZombieHunter26 Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 looks like something i'd use as random detail on one of my creations... lol. As for it's -actual- purpose... i'm not exactly sure.
ZombieHunter26 Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 Correction, it closely resembles what -could- be the timing cover for a first gen Cadillac SRX 3.6L V6. If I'm correct, then this is what the other side -would- look like if it were 1:1- Hope this helps?
scale trucker Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 it looks like the front cover from the amt v-12 detroit in the drag truck kits..
torinobradley Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 Front cover from an F1 kit of some type?
diymirage Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 i think we can agree its the front cover of a DOHC V engine now we just need to start ruling out engines....i know its not the DOHC HEMI form the superbee
mrspex Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 All I can add here is 90 degree V-something...
Draggon Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 DOHC Ford front cover from the Gurney Eagle?
Modlbldr Posted December 23, 2011 Author Posted December 23, 2011 Given my friend's collection of kits (the part is his and he wanted your help identifying it) I would have to say it probably came from the Eagle. But I had that kit years ago and I don't remember it being molded in this color of plastic. It almost looks like the color of resin. Any other ideas? Any photos to go with the ideas would be nice too. Later-
62rebel Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 if it's really old styrene it could have been stark white when new, and simply went yellowish with age. i have a few relatively ancient bits that look almost gold..... post up another pic with a scale/ruler next to it.
randx0 Posted December 23, 2011 Posted December 23, 2011 it is from an imc ford gt mark 2 what do i win?
