Progress - Tamiya Ligier JS-11 (lot's off pics,56K WARNING)

Ligier JS-11/J.Laffite
Argentine GP 1979
1:20 Tamiya







New rear wing, I did not really like the original which also had wrong shape in the back. Not complete yet as I have not yet decided about the final shape.


Although Tamiya’s kits are not bad, some parts are unfortunately a bit too simplified, brakes is a major example. It’s one piece in the kit (you can see it on the last pic with parts not used), so I had to make a new one.Originally I only wanted to make the brake, but during the work I decided to scratch build complete rear suspension, inluding the oil radiator.


First prototype of new rear suspension upper arm.




















Fit testing of new rear wing and ait intake.










In the bottom of the photo you can see unused original parts from the kit.

Renault RS-01
March 711
Ferrari 126 CK
Mclaren Mp-4/2c

Excellent work as always Aress. What did you use for the intake stacks? Also do you have any reference pics you would like to share. I have a 1/12 scale build of this car on the go and would love some detail shots. Thanks.
