Re: 1/12 Tamiya Mini Cooper **Progress**

Looks great Vric but where's the rubber glove over the distributor to keep the water out? (just kidding of course - the old Marigold gloves used to be a 'must have' accessory at one time)

Re: 1/12 Tamiya Mini Cooper **Progress**

Looking good so far but the firing order is wrong, it should be; 1,2,4,3. You've got it wired up; 1,2,3,4, it won't run very smooth like that , plus the plugs are entering the cylinder head at the wrong angle, apart from that, nice.

Not much to update.
I painted the body tonight, it's too early to take picture of it.

Here is the progress on the interior (flocked) Actually too contrasted picture. It's much softer in real.

That's a great "sandpapering" job you did there Vric

Re: 1/12 Tamiya Mini Cooper **Progress**

Great colour and paintwork! Looking forward to seeing more

I'm a bit surprised though that Tamiya only gave it an opening bonnet at this large a scale.

yea

but anyway, there isn't much to show inside. It's 1/12, but interior use less parts than most 1/24 I made...

Color is hard to take in picture. Metallic + pear = camera going crazy.
