    Gt 40 steering wheel badge

    Douglas looks great. Surprised the one I printed had a little sharper detail but yours doesn't have any layer lines. If you'll email me your address I'll see if I can light a big enough fire under my son to print one for both of us. Might have to buy an 8k resin printer for myself. Great work...

    Gt 40 steering wheel badge

    I'd like to say for the record that many of the pictures I've post here were not mine. Sorry to say I didn't keep track of the people that went to the trouble of taken them. Thank you all.

    Gt 40 steering wheel badge

    Hi David, would the weight give you the answer you're looking for. A better question might be could someone with a real badge please let one of us sit down with it and take a bunch of pictures and measurements. Including weight. What might help just as much is a readable blueprint.

    The last time I asked questions like that I got a raft of $&@# about it. LOL.

    Gt 40 steering wheel badge

    My son printed one of my designs on his resin printer. As you can see the front side is rough but the back looked really good except for the layer lines. A little sanding took care of the front. I guess if I want to make only one and didn't mind a lot of hand work this process could work. The...

    Gt 40 steering wheel badge

    Douglas great work. I got about as far as you did but without the original drawings. In Fusion 360 you can add draft to the vertical parts of a mold say 3° so the part will release when molded. I couldn't get Fusion to add the draft to the curved parts because the weren't flat. Hope you can...

    Not sure why it didn't work on my phone either. Very strange. Maybe not my phone also runs Chrome. It does work if I'm in a thread on the forum.

    Gt 40 steering wheel badge

    The originals were injection molded plastic. I've been trying to make one of these for my own car for some time now. If and when I'm able to make or buy a badge I've solved one of the biggest problems I had, the chrome finish. Forever getting plastic to look like chrome for us poor folk has...

    Thanks Brian, certainly not the end of the world. Is that your Lola in the picture? Many years ago a friend was working on converting a T70 roadster into a street car with a 427 tunnel port motor. Last I knew he was having problems getting a windshield with a DOT stamp. What beautiful cars. Not...

    Brian if it's something I'm doing wrong please let me know. I've been wrong more than a few times, just ask my X-wife. I spent almost 40 years working on computer hardware and software so I'm not a newbie but that doesn't mean I'm infallible.

    It works here in a thread but not when I try and send a PM. Please try and send me a picture in a PM and let me know what you get. If you look at the small window I posted it isn't the same as when you click on the link icon.

    I'm trying to upload a picture in the "Start a conversation" window. When I press the "Insert image" icon I get the Link window (see picture below) instead. I just checked and the link in this window is working correctly. Would you please have a look and see if you can fix the problem. Thanks.

    Superformance Dashboard Paint

    Dave sorry for the late post but I hope you see this. I've had my car since 2008 and see no deterioration. Unless they changed the paint they used why yours didn't fare well. Do you live in a high humidity area? I'm pretty sure the part is made out of ABS with the soft coating added on. It's now...

    Hi sorry for the delay. For me to make the best possible knob I'm going to need the thread size and pitch. It would also really help me to know if you can get an emblem. Could you send me some pictures of the car in its current state. You can send them to my email address [email protected].

    Superformance GT40 Transmission Mounting Bushes

    Robbie, I wasn't prepared for the transition of what my kids called garage furniture into something I could drive. Enjoy the experience.

    Anybody know if the Indy engine took a standard 5 or 6 bolt small block Ford bellhousing? Sorry for thread drift.

    Beautiful car. It was strange to see it being driven to an event with no plates.

    GT40 roadster

    I thought maybe the parts taken off of the converted cars are being used on some of the "NEW" ones as the windshields must be very rare. My most interesting GT40 sighting was seeing the spyder in the picture driving around the streets of Kirkland Wa back in 2010. There were Mk I, II, III, and...
