That turned out fantastic. I'm curious what size bearings you used in the rear trailing arm mounts

Thanks, i think it came out awesome much better than i first thought.

I didnt really no how to assemble the rear trailing arms because the delta parts dont come with instructions but i used 5, 5x10x3 bearings
on each side one on each side and 3 to act as a spacer but im sure i have done it wrong but it works for now as its only a shelfer.

What a great job! I had a half a dozen of these in the late 1990s and sold them all off. I always liked these cars. If there is on part I wish someone would remake, it's the gearbox for the 834b. It's the hardest part to find and/or duplicate.

Just put up on eBay some ERROR Bolink Funco 834b Half Bodies. They don't have any scoops on them. These had been done at a plant that was not getting things done correctly. I have moved to a different plant now since then. Don't plan on running this mold again any time soon. So if you need one and don't mind the problems you can get one at a good price.

Edit - first set sold out in less than 24 hours. Here is 2 more sets but they are worse, and cheaper.

That looks stunning ,I can't wait to get mine finished.
If a jobs not worth doing then its certainly not worth doing well.
A problem shared is a problem halved but an advantage shared is no advantage at all.

This is a photo of the original body NIP and the header card says it is designated ZB-GL, I think I got this picture off Yahoo Japan a number of years ago and I think it sold for pretty big money back then which probably was at least 5 years ago. So very rare!


Oops! I guess if I had looked at page 2 instead of going from page 1 to 4 I might have seen this picture already posted so I have now removed it. Sorry.
