Porsche 3.2 engine

[Deathtrap]

Hi all,

For a commision build, I was asked to build a air-cooled engine in 1/24. The man did not have a specific engine in mind, so eventually we agreed on using the 3.2 engine from one of the Fujimi Enthusiast models, in this case the '85 Targa.



A quick shot of the basic Fujimi parts for this engine.


All hose clamps and other fastners were removed and redone using BMF.


Final pictures:













...and after a small wash of the fan.







List of paints (main colors) and modifications:
- Alclad Magnesium
- Alclad Stainless Steel
- Alclad Chrome
- ModelAir guards red
- Revell black (flat and semi-gloss)

- all clamps and binders replaced with BMF
- ignition wiring added
- Injectors and main fuelline added
- lift-hook added
- drive belt replaced

I hope you all like the result as much as I do.

Nice work! I like how you've displayed it, hanging from the stand.

Looks good. The factory exhaust, cat, etc. on these is really more of a grey\tan color rather than silver however:



Thanks for posting,
