Lotus V6 Super 7

Tamiya 1/24 scale kit with an old AMT Buick V6 from an Opel GT kit, but car and engine are significantly modified. Car was converted from RHD to Left Hand Drive. Wheels are modified and detailed BMW units. Webers are from two Super 7 kits, intake manifold is scratchbuilt, intake horns were machined from 6061 aluminum. Car is fully plumbed and wired. Paint is a custom mixed “Violent Blue” with TS-45 Pearl white for the nose. Too many things to list, but here is the WIP Thread if you would like to know more:

I agree, that engine is incredible!
The paint looks perfectly smooth too.

Beautiful work!

Re: Lotus V6 Super 7

The workmanship is superb even if I disagree with a stylistic choice or two (to me the white nosecone looks out of place). Well done, though, a lot of effort went into it and it shows.
