CHASSIS DEPT

Yesterday i worked on the Chassis and wheels. Spent the whole afternoon and night doing it. Managed to finish it! What's left now is the body/frame...


Set up the parts to spray. Brake disc backing, suspension coils, disc brakes...


The chassis with painted silver nuts at the bottom. Tamiya also provided a transparent piece below the engine for display viewing.


Attached the Ferrari Decals on the wheels. Super small, i had to use tweezers.


Disc calipers sprayed red.


Painted the middle part gold and inserted decals for the calipers. Also super minute job..


Some parts ready to be installed - radiators, backarms, disc brakes, axles


Fixed the front wheel arm


It joins with the interior compartment piece


Installed the exhaust manifold and torque axles on the engine.


Radiators - i fixed a black wire to both the radiators to increase realism a little.


Masked the glass and ready for paint


Done Chassis
