This is a little project I am working on at the moment. I am using a Fujimi Mk5 Golf GTI as the base car for the project, but with a little twist.
I will be transplanting a Mercedes AMG V12 engine and corresponding drive train in the beast. It will have a full rollcage, striped interior and some track day goodies.
I have openned the doors (using some photoetch 0.1mm saws, which worked great!!) and I am making a one piece front that will be fully removable.
Some pics:
Engine is almost done (it is from the Tamiya S600)
Body has doors removed and front 75% clip assembled
The problem I have run into at present is that the floor of the internal tub is the same height as the door openning. I will need to cut it up and drop it to the correct depth
I'm also working on 'racing' up the dash. Some carbon fibre should help. Anyone have tips on how to make a dash mounted fusebox with all the different coloured fuses?
