Callaway C7r GT3 1/24

well, I like gt cars. The callaway is an anabolic version of the corvette c7r, so i deceided to create my own callaway c7r.

All it begin when I asked on the facebook page of the company if they could provide me some decent documentation about their racer , and after some days , the only answer i got was a lcaonic...NO. period.

so i didnt gave up and found proper blueprints and scaled at 1/24. being a conversion of the revell c7r, in 1/25 scale, i had to mantain the clear areas as from original revell kit (windshield mostly) and all the rest was increased to 1:24.
I was lucky the wheels used by callaway are exactly the OZ used by Acura Honda NSX gt3, stuff I already have 3d printed, and perfectly in 24th scale, so one problem was already solved..











The decals I will use are from Decaldoc. Also Fola at slotfabrick makes very nices ones..so also that ones may be used.

my version will be valvoline car:

Incredible! Great craftsmanship! I don’t hang here often mostly at model cars mag but what a build you are doing! I have been in contact once with callaway when I was at collage but I got a nice answer.
