Austin Mini Pickup

Postby pfuetze » Mon Feb 13, 2017 12:46 pm

Here´s my Austin Mini Pickup.
Did it from a Mini Broadspeed GT body from 43Motorsports.
Added a 3D printed chassis and printed wheels
Tires are custom made with rounded side walls from CarGo Customs in Germany, now available
Tomy Turbo replacement motor
Color from Tamiya spray can, details from Revell and Vallejo colors. I really like the Vallejo color, good pigments, good to paint with brush.
scratchbuilt interior (vac-formed) and rollcage.

I think this little beauty could win this year's Pronomag!

no way, Lloyd, no way.
it´s too small and the wheels are small, too. not a winning package, but a fun one. maybe if i can finish the Monaco, that one is better, it got ball bearings, too and smoother gears.

@ Aki: thanks!
