argh! i was summoned for jury duty this afternoon - i escaped the morning session, but got the call at noon -- so i didn't get much done today. i've spent the past few days painting various bits but hope to start assembling the interior. i'm having some trouble, as there aren't a lot of references showing the interior of the Pozzi car i'm building. this is all i've got:
if anyone's got interior photos of the Pozzi car, i'd love to have them.
wiith so little to go on, i'll have to make some educated guesses based upon these two photos of other 365s from the same era. i know the Pozzi car has its battery in the engine compartment because i've got a photo, and i assume the Pozzi car would have just the driver's seat if it raced at Le Mans. ditto for plain aluminum door panels -- i'm almost certain it didn't have the stock panels, with the leather upholstry, full arm rest and chrome speaker grille!
so far i've prepped and painted the seat and dash, and i've painted and flocked the interior "tub." tomorrow (june 12) i hope to finish the dash -- gauges (Model Car Garage), various dash knobs (S27 pe) and scratch the other bits. it looks to me like there's some diamond-pattern steel or aluminum plate in front of the driver's seat of the Pozzi car.
i'll also get the pleasure of building a roll cage.
i'll also have to scratch build a steering wheel, as Italeri used the same steering wheel for both its 365 competition kit and its 288 GTo kit.
