Re: Group Build: Lotus Super Twelve

Time for an update.
No big things but a lot of thinking non the less.
The engine has got some basic painting and blackwash.

The Mercedes intake runners needed some detailing. I made conical filters and intake hoses. A bit of CF finished it off.




Then I fabricated some hinges for the nose cone.



Some cut-outs for the push-rod pivot and the shocks. Somehow there must be space for a radiator in there aswell:




Then It was time to trim off the stock hood and hinge it to the firewall.
This is what was left after a big V12-sized hole was cut in it



Engine compartment open:



..and closed:





started to paint and assemble the rear end:
