I picked up one of these last year, but haven't done anything with it. It was too cool to pass up, especially with the Associated shocks, CRP chassis plate and stadium truck bodyshell. Wheels and tyres look good too, plus it also has a new pair of rims and some new in packet red ball joints as well....

Very good data. Thanks a lot! The most difficult is to get the internal profile right. I should get the complement data when I get my hands on my friend's depleted tires... It requires to unmount the tires and use a tool to measure the thickness in different points of the profile (below the picture...

That's coming along well :D I use Elmer's purple washable glue stick for everything these days , I have the same Creality glass bed and it's worked well when new but did need constant cleaning with isopropyl alcohol , now I just use the glue stick , it's always for me the circles it prints for holes...

Looks pretty good , it could do with just a touch of rework on the bonnet bulge , maybe just a little lower and more chamfered but good enough as it is .

1mm split pins on eBay are cheap as chips and easy to find , can't see the point of messing about making them .

This is an incredible build and such a cool looking car. I love all the polished aluminum pieces. I know how much work goes into getting these results. Thanks for sharing. Many thank you! Hope you will enjoy the result. --------------------- Good evening, more rebuild: Step 12 (12.1 to 12.3): assem...

I rubbed a bit of silicon grease on tyres. All I can say is it doesn't seem to have done any harm.

Hey Mate, just a note to say i really like your color scheme on the plasma, very nice, and thanks for the detailed build too. People take a long time and a lot of effort to post these like you have, and often they are not appreciated. Yours was, im now ordering one, even though ive been off road 1/1...

That's looking very clean Beautiful photos and well documented , as a professional mechanic you often wonder if the person writing the instructions has ever worked on a car

Next step: Step 18: rear body support bracket Always so beautiful this black washer... https://media.joomeo.com/large/6353b570e5585.jpg https://media.joomeo.com/large/6353b57f5b9d5.jpg Step 19: later. Step 20 and 21: assembly of the front "shock absorbers": I am missing parts to finalize, ...

Next step for my 1/8 project !
