As I have already written, the engine comes from the Dragster Lindberg scale 1/8.
This is little more than a scrap, I started with rebuilding the oil cup
and the transmission part.
Technique: plasticard, vacuform and nuts.
The engine is an important part of the project, so it needs attention.

After a few days of work, the engine is almost over.
There are only a few details missing.

If you can't fix it with a hammer, you've got an electrical problem mate :)

Thank you all.
Your appreciation push me to continue.
The coloring time approaches, I'm still undecided about the finish.
I would like to make the blue lightweight body with a large orange stripe,
style 70s.
What do you think?

Gulf scheme sounds good :y: :)

It's either that or black with flames down the sides ;)
