How are you making these? 3d printer??

no ..i wish though.. if i had a 3D printer id be making all kinds of tires lol.. the only thing in 3D printing is the two turbos and waste gates...everything else is by hand...

so far so good and yes these are plastic.. i scratched built them from square plastruct tubbing..

MAKES SENSE, ARE YOU USING STYRENE OR ABS? I'VE HEARD ABS IS STRONGER & FLEXABLE

thank you.. i could of went the simple way but just looking at the car it was something i had to try and do.. again thank you for the compliment.

   I had to redo my rear suspension because i cut my other axel a bit to short. So this time i staggered the coil overs like their suppose to be. I added Brembo brakes and made brakets for them.. the whole suspension is pretty much a bolt on. I will be taking it apart for paint..

I also started on my interior. I made some simple seat tracks for the seats..also an adjustment lever using brass.

I did a little work on the exhaust today. I stopped because the pipping is a little to large.. im going to down size it....

Let there be paint..  i used automotive paints for the chassis. Gloss on the frame parts and semi gloss on the main base. I added brake and fuel lines but i need to do the exhaust so its just mocked up..Alcald was used on the gas tank.
