We have colors for next 10 Lotus7.
Today I make wheel's cover , forming block , using MDF and next days I'll cover them.
If I'll use kevlar ,the color will be ... yellow , without painting.
I am not sure about it, yet.

I'm back to my projects ( I dont know for how long) but not in this one. The chassis was too heavy and I was in wrong way.
The comparative new project is this.

....here we are!!!!!!!
Lars, i used this as mold for the front and nose cone.
Uploaded with ImageShack.us

I covered it with fiber glass to make the nose but all this was ( and is ) on the wrong way to make a Lotus7.
I didnt like the result and if i want now ( ... yes i want ) a Lotus 7, there is only one way to me . FROM THE BEGINNIG.
If you like this nose cone, the mold is yours, as friendly gift. It weights about 6 kg and maybe pay a lot for shipping but and the wallet is yours, too.

Oh thanks, that is very generous of you, but i think i turn down the offer. I will have to see what my next project will be, i think i will maybe go for some classic vintage car-body once again. Did i read somewhere from you that this was 1:3,5th scale?

RE: Project 2 by VassilisG -LOTUS 7
Yep, i will do what i can to keep my cars in 1:5th scale so they are "compatible" with eachother and can use the same parts and wheels

I do the same.For 1/4th and 1/5th scales, part's dimensions are close .
Withe same parts, on different 'floor' , body and settings i coult take a new car.
