Re: The ITR that got away

Finally got around to taking a couple of pics of the hinge. Its quite simple really. Same as any normal hinge which you will find tutorials for on the web, only difference is that the pivot is set at an angle so the door will swing out and up. The hinge itself was made from wire and a piece of brass tubing.







Hopefully i'll get it finished this year!

Nice one Chris! I'm still having trouble making my doors pivot correctly, though just the standard way of opening a door.

Re: Re: Re: The ITR that got away

I forgot to mention that some plastic was removed from the inside front of the door to allow it to open freely. You should be able to see this in one of the pics and how there is a slight taper to it.

Not really, will keep that pretty much stock to stop the build dragging on longer than it has. There is plenty going on with the interior though.

Re: Re: Re: Re: The ITR that got away

That's cool. The Revell 1.8 comes with supposingly 180bhp. What were you planning for the interior? Removing the back seat for a sound system? Custom cage?
