Thank you for the comments,the tough weather doesn't allow me to paint; I have realized at the lathe two rings of reinforcement and finish for the back of the rear wheels.The rings has been reamed with a corner of 6° and chamfered at 30°.

Marvelous work. It is a true pleasure to watch it come along!

Thanks for the comment, in this period I have some problem for this reason there have been no updates, the weather in northern Italy doesn't help me and the paint job of the rear wheels is a long task because of the small imperfections in the point of union between styrene and aluminum, puttyed , sanded and primed more times.

The sanding job on the rear weels is finally ended: has taken two weeks and not less than 5 fine layers of primer every one checked, puttyed and sanded again, tomorrow the final layer of Vallejo satin,i hope in the end of a nightmare for the weels. If i could return back I would not make the rear wheels in aluminum but simply confine me to regularize the diameters of the original ones at the lathe.

Just a stunning build. Such skill and patience - the VIN plate showed me just how much research you have put into this car.

Breathtaking.

Ultra detailed build!

A small update,rear weels are ok.

Nino Furicchio · 03-29-2008, 06:50 AM

Also the new extinguishers are ok,the 4 bolts has been machined as usual from 1,5 mm brass, this task results very precise,and I could also think about not using the glue to definitely fix them in place.

Thank you.. the battery and the brakes lines complete of the new reservoirs have been glued in place, in the circles Milliput has been added for glueing later the modified front X brace bar .
