Another Porsche 917

[HIPPIE2]

Well after a bit of help from srachbuilt i think i can finally start this thread,

I'm planing on building a 917 chassis out of brass, in 1/6 or 1/8 scale, haven't decided yet, if you got any ideas I'd love to hear them.

but before i spend a bunch of money on a few dozen feet of brass I've started a "mini" version, wheelbase was shrunk to 80mm, Plan is hopefully I'll learn something building it before i tackle the big one. So I'm not spending much time squaring anything up or being really specific, quick and dirty, so far I've only put like 3 hours in, enough ramblings here's some pics...

and here's some other random old projects that I'm working on that don't deserve their own thread









thanks for looking, C&C always welcome

Nice work, your workshop intrigues me . That bike project is fantastic and the weathering is on point! I like your style..

Interesting project. What will you do with the chassis when you've finished it?

Guess you'll have to move on to the engine from there...
