Got bored

Post by ThomasH »

Got bored so thought id throw a car back together for this years season. Though with the shortage of white parts I am having second thoughts about actually using it.

Looks like a Fusion Speed chassis but I could be wrong.

It is one of Martins. Just had one knocked up again for old time sake. Still need a little fettling to finish but got all carried away and just built the car up. The drill jig for the front kick up has gone bye the bye over the years so will have to get round to drilling one buy hand. He still makes them when time permits if you are after one.

I found some of the bits really hard to get hold of so was thinking of vacuum casting some of the old discontinued parts. Then I could do white nylon and glass reinforced reproductions of original parts. It's a fair bit of work and expense so will have to see where I would stand legally on selling them on.

I was planning to though I am now thinking of taking it all back apart and rebuilding it with black parts. Or I may just make another one out of black bit to run. Actually I think that is probably the best plan. Only bits I am missing is the rest alloy engine plate. I am positive I can find one floating about.
