mitchell Posted July 17, 2013 Posted July 17, 2013 Also build a Alfa Romeo Sprint GTA while the site was down. Tamiya's historical car series produces a few of the best model ever made in 24 scale in my humble opinion. The proportion is right and the details in it is just amazing. In this build, added engine room wiring to make it more complete. The theme of this car is a classic that participate in vintage rally race. Thanks for watching.
Harry P. Posted July 17, 2013 Posted July 17, 2013 I like the engine detail... but you're gonna have to explain the "fit" of the hood...
mitchell Posted July 18, 2013 Author Posted July 18, 2013 here are some outdoor photos that I tool with the Fiat 500.
sjordan2 Posted July 18, 2013 Posted July 18, 2013 (edited) Nice job. Makes me very nostalgic for the 1966 1600 Sprint GT (GTV with Webers) I had. I'm not sure why the whole hood sticks up in the shots, but the front edge of the hood is the original "step-nose" style of this body and should stick up. Edited July 18, 2013 by sjordan2
mitchell Posted July 20, 2013 Author Posted July 20, 2013 yes, this early Gulia Sprint is step nose, but there is a fit issue once the hinges are on. Need to tweak it a bit more for it lay flat at the rear edge, but for now, I can say it needs more cooling under the hood. I did build a functional hood support rod, which is quite functional.
