Re: 1/12 Datsun 240ZG
Thanks Spidey....but, um.........NO !.....
Thank you too InsomniacZ32..
They are great pics, and I've saved them...hope you don't mind.
That is the car of my dreams, and the one which got me started on this build..I've deviated away from it in motor only......so far.
I will need to get another of these kits, as I do want to fully replicate this orange beast to the best of my ability.....in the future...
So, this build will be painted the light blue...a close clone. Sorry to disappoint those wanting the red/orange...
Small update....
Well, now that I've decided on doing the red (Safari version) as a stock showroom build, I realized the fuel tank was going to need changing....the race style fuel cell just would not cut it....
So, this is what I started doing....it's a fairly basic shape, so wasn't that hard to duplicate....
The most obvious deviation from a stock tank is the fuel feed on the bottom of the tank.
I want to run a duel feed from the tank, so I made a fuel block and mounted in place. It will have duel fuel lines running forward, through twin pump/filters,
which I'll mount on a bracket just in front of the tank. A junction/joiner will then run a single line to the motor.
That's it for now....I expect to get a good bit done this coming week as I have some annual leave happening....
Stay tuned guys.....
cheers
Greg
