Thank you Dominique, it is a five star joy to this build! The base will definitely get a varnish coat !

Re: Alfa Romeo 8C 2300 cut out engine (1:8)

Another update where I (almost) finished the closed side of the engine. I replaced some plumbing because the Pocher original is to rude to be nice.



This the result of bending and soldering



Furthermore I assembled and detailled the compressor. I altered the carburetor: the original does not resemble reality at all.





Next step will be some detailling (oil/fuel lines ) And I have to decide what parts I will use to finish to cut open side of the engine. And than the final pictires

Regards

Ton

Re: Alfa Romeo 8C 2300 cut out engine (1:8)

My final posting on this project with some pictures of work in progress and the final pictures. The WIP concerns the alternator. The original plastic by Pocher is ...mwah and it is also on the cut open side. So I decided to make a cut open alternator.









And now (a lot of) final pictures of this nice project
