Re: Ferrari 250LM 1965 Le Mans Winner - MFH 1/24

It time for an update to my work. Not something really interest but this kit need a lot of cleaning, test fitting and hole making. I organize the work to three main bunches for the engine, gearbox and suspension parts.






As you can see, a lot of cleaning required. Also, the opened first holes opened.




Afterwards I try to test fit the rear frame with the cockpit but it was bended to all three dimensions. Many time and a lot of fear after, I manage to have an acceptable result.






Then, the subframes attached to the main engine frame,


and try to correct and test fit the rear subframes, were spare wheel attached.




More holes drilled to the main frame, to the positions were suspension parts, some engine components and a number of roll bars attached.


Then with sandpapers, my dremel and a toothbrush I clean a lot from the parts.


Finally, I put together the engine and gearbox parts. This engine part will be the main component of the most serious test fitting, of next update.


Thanks for watching!

George
