  It took two tries but I got a good one for the drivers side. As I was riding the short bus to the lab this morning. I got an idea for some detail on the tires but you will have to wait and see. |

    I have not updated this for awhile. Here are some pics of parts I have been making just by brushing resin around in the molds to make parts that are shells like a kit would be. I made the parts to be a overlap of the other part. I need to make the part that would be the front wheel back. I am thinking it will be a possible three piece body. In the bottom pic there are some red X's where I think it could be ground out and then made into a new master. I am envisioning that the hauler part can be mastered to slide up from the bottom to meld the two parts together, then the builder would simply do body work to fill in this seam. A lip will be added to the underside and the chassis pan will be glued to the underside and that seam could just be hidden. We are still in the thinkin' stage though. The drivers side rear window master got broke when I moved my model table into my Lab, so It needs a third try too. It's goin' slow but been busy. Too many irons in the fire! This project and the W196 R are a hand in hand effort. I think they just look really good together. Q: How do Germans tie their shosies? A: With little knotsies, of course! LOL That's my original German joke! |

 I made a mold of the back part of the body.  The mold made a nice first copy. I decided to mix 50 ML of resin. I guessed real good! Well....That's all the work on this project for this year. Looks like I have until 2076 to complete this project and I have plenty of time. And the Grandkids will graduate from high school before the house gets done too. |

Here is a pic of the chassis pan I made. John Teresi is working on some upgrade parts for this subject  OOPS! OK here is the correct pic. I have posted several pics into several subjects. All this work is straining my brain! LOL |

I would never have thought the brainy strainer was actually a transport chassis.
