Yeah, I was lazy to post ģin progress photos of this build. :uhoh: But it was build in only 5 days, so…
It's build mostly OOB, except aluminum injector stacks, a bit of piping and wiring, heat and BMF foil. Wanted to make sort of ungradet verion Super Seven, but keep the original look of the car. It's a car from an old bloke who loves Super 7 and use it for a daily drive on British countryside in any weather condition.
Primer is Tamiya Gray, color is from a local hobby shop (no zero paints this time :eek7: ) and clearcoated with Zero 2k clear. I didn't use polish paste, but just micromesh from 6000 to 12000. I'm happy with the result.
Engine is 16-valve Cosworth. I has a sticker on the hood. :tongue:
Pictures (I really like this car)…
