Re: Patrick Snijers Manx Rally 1988 Beemax BMW

I almost finished with the build - just in time before Beemax brings out the rally version (at least I got good use of my old Studio27 transkit). Only needs some light worn effects here and there. Looking at the preview images from the new rally kit, it will need some modifications as well. The most difficult in this build was to create sufficient place for the fusebox under the dashboard, I had to lift the hole dash around 3-4mm. This is the disadvantade of the separated chassis and interior-tub construction and will be the same problem on the rally version kit. The chassis needs to be modified as well to accomodate the side exhaust and discard the oil cooler. The rest was really good except from the now well known problem with the side glasses.
