What's on your bench right now? [1/43]

[BARC 1]

The Rally was a good event. I was a little surprised how well my Volvo did. That was a pretty heavy car, but it seemed to like the track.

The cars I am sending will be new to you but they have logged many Kleskun Hill laps. A Porsche 906 and a Mercedes CLK touring car. Not sure what the third entry will be. Perhaps a Ferrari P 4

Are you sure you are in the right forum ?

Here we talk about 1/43. What you show is either 32nd or even 24th scale.
Example - a C-Can Mura as you showed on your last photo never will be usable in any 43rd scale car.

There are forums for 24th scale as well as 32nd.

Regards,

Roland

made a small jig for measuring the wheel base correctly.
6mm aluminium pipe and 8by8mm styrene material. 2 holes for the axles - works like a charm - at least on the 356 :-)









working on the new chassis for the vac-formed Mini JCW - should be ready for the ProNoMag.






K&D were already glued with CA glue to the RD rims, but the polished surface did not let the glue stick. used sand paper 150 grit and made some scratches on the surface - should work better now, hopefully.
