917 Chassis- Completed
- Thread starter kenshiro8
- Start date
Beautiful....when you want to build full size ones give me a call....always room at the shop for more talent.
that will be a real dream Fran...
Paolo,
Nice, NICE work (drool,drool)
The last picture - what F1 car is that?
In that car the feet are way.....far forward. Like the 917.
I see a I see an Italian intern in RCR's future
Paolo - "Fran how do you like the new RCR chassis I built?"
Fran - "Paolo, that's still too small...only Mesa could fit in that"

eheh, glad u like the work.
I only was part in the assembly of the 917 from the first pictures.
The last car is another cool one at last Monza contest.
It is a full schratchbuild 1/20 scale Osella FA1E from 1983

a real shitty car, but a too nice stunning model.
The chassis was handmade in alluminium

So Paolo,
What is it that stands in the way of you building a full size car?
You've clearly got the love, and know your history, model makers are generally very detail and quality oriented which are good traits in car building. The rest of the skills you can learn I'm sure.
For most of us here the time and circumstances are never properly 'right' so we just say 'to heck with it' and get on with building the dream as best we can. So thats no excuse! Neither's not having much money because I don't either!
One of my personal goals for my project was to hope to inspire someone else to have a go at doing their own car too.
So what would it take to push you over the line and give it a go?
Or to put it another way to start with I'd really like to see the 1/10th model of the original design that Paolo will build one day...

I saw the F1 car at the European GP at Brands Hatch, I managed to get some pictures of the thing with the bodywork off during a pit walkabout. I was 14 at the time and the local boys scouts had the litter clearing contract for the race weekend.
We camped in the circuit and got paid 10 quid for our trouble (that makes me sound about a 1000 years old!).
As I recall it wasn't very competitive, but looked great to me!

Paolo: perhaps you could make something like this until you are ready to move to full sized cars. Stunning Fully Functional 1:3 Scale Ferrari 312PB - SHOUTfile.com
i'm sure that many here are aware of this project, but it still amazes me.

Really amazing work.

I am surprised the mini-car is not at the factory in Italy, front and center!!!
Unbelievable detail, and worth a million. Unbelievable!
