Rallycross BMW M3 E30 of swedich driver Bengt Ekström base BEEMAX 1/24

Rallycross BMW M3 sports evolution of Bengt Ekström (father of Mattias Ekström both acquainted as DTM driver as World champion rallycross 2016).
The car date from the early 90's, and was a gr A car,2 wheel drive.
I used as a base a Beemax kit where the necessary changes were made.

There is no engine in the kit of Beemax.
Therefore I have used the engine of Modellingmaster(Roman),and changed a lot of things,like the inlet manifould,the exhaust and the valve cover.
I made a design in of the valve cover and let it print.

Re: Rallycross BMW M3 E30 of swedich driver Bengt Ekström base BEEMAX 1/24

Finally he is ready the rallycross BMW M3 evo of Bengt Ekström(father of Worldchampion rallycross 2016 and DTM driver Matias Ekström)
This is definitely not O.O.B. what most model builders build.
The full suspension was changed, the roller cage and the interior were adjusted.
Rims were drawn in 3D and printed like the tires that are also of resin.
The engine comes largely from modeling master, but the valve cover was changed and re-drawn and printed in 3D, as well as the inlet collector....
Finally, the decals are also signed by myself.
