Re: Vector W2 kit build up - JJ
Everytime this topic pops up, I smile . I'm reminded of how nothing else looks really anything like a Vector...and of how badly I want one! Great work as usual, showing us how it's done.

Re: Vector W2 kit build up - JJ
Beautiful work sir, beautiful! I've been a fan of the Vector since it first appeared back in the 80's and my dad, a drafting/engineering teacher, told me about it , and how it was designed on the cad software of the day...the same cad software I was using at the time to draw my own cars (when I was like 8 i think?)
Cool stuff dude! |

Re: Vector W2 kit build up - JJ
Thanks guys! Cool stories too!
Haven't been on this forum since my laptop crashed, along with my passwords and photos More progress has continued with my Vector W2 build, most of which has been some redesign & reconstruction, so make molding/casting easier and more reliable Rubber tires have been reproduced now, so kits will have the proper Pirelli P7 tires of that era |

Re: Vector W2 kit build up - JJ
Had to develop the graphics, for pending production into adhesive decals, including the original bar graph dash display of the W2
First of the components being molded for casting |

Re: Vector W2 kit build up - JJ
that decal sheet is awesome in a good 80's kind of way
sorry to hear about the laptop crash though.

Re: Vector W2 kit build up - JJ
Thanks so many facets to this project, all of which require me to learn through trial & error
W2 rear bumper ready for molding/casting Casting of door(s) now, allows me to make finished buck each for shipping out to have recast in clear resin First resin casting of the W2 rear bumper came out well, very happy! Door plugs cast in resin, now for final fitment, then sent out as masters for recasting in clear resin |
