I am slowly modeling the Raborn Invencer, among other things right now in Creo. I just thought I'd share some of the progress. When the model is done, I'll follow it with a complete build of the actual car.

Looks good, always like the 3D model threads. AS a guy who models for a living and has a ton of RC models it is a labor of love. If you need something maybe I can help with generic items, like screws, washers, bolts, ball ends, etc, just ask.

It's my job too. I've just been doing these here and there during free moments at work. I'm working on other cars too. Having a car handy makes things very quick and easy. I'm really just doing this for Barry Raborn. He's a good friend and conveniently works right across the street from me. When he designed the original car it was really just a hand drawn mockup on paper. He cut out the first parts manually out of aluminum and just gave them to a molder to copy. There were no prints. I want complete plans for the car so he can have a record of his work.

Good news. I am picking up all of the remaining original Invencer inventory from Meir tomorrow! Time to start cataloging parts.
