Like that way the car looks here.


And discovered one dude decided to give my work on the 3D for his own on the i-net. Kids U know....) Funny, couse it was for free on well known 3d sites already for long ago). What do they think off )))

Made windshield window cuts & quarter windows, if I'm calling it the right way.
And interior fit it.

I am so glad this project is still going! Great work, I love it as much now as I did when you started!

And also just a few more interior parts added.

Front Panel is attached. Was an idea to order a CNC press form for it, but it's appeared quite ok with just hammering....
The lighter was used to unglue the panel on fitting procedures. Just a bit of heat and that's it with it.

Still a pleasure to follow !!

Thanks, thanks))

Generally and frankly speaking, is made through anyhow (in a slipshod manner) )))

Well, using online service http://trycolors.com checked on photo the color of the car. And mixed the colors accordingly. Guess kind of the right one.

Figured out the alternative method to cnc , ok joke, as alternative to wooden form for hammering, by choping the 3d model on layers, here is 63 of them, with self adhezive image paper. That was just a test couse i messed up with super precise positioning of the layers out, and need to draw some more positioning marks. But whatever with it. And the negative mold with epoxy plasticine glue. Works great. Very rigid and the metall can be hammered with ease on it.

And simple test with thick foil. The form can be also used for vacuum forming etc.

Hi.

The rig for stretching metal is build. And experiment with fender, even though it is too much of a pull for fender be done that way) The guess better use the plastic hammer as well too.

The whole part was formed as incremental forming, by sliding the hammer on the form. The first pics with half of the fender is hammer formed.
