IS this based on a 1:1 Car shape?
Very nice job btw. I would love to start with 3D printing but my tech understanding is worse than useless

Kev,
I have seen that 356 file and always thought the front windscreen and pillars looked wrong.... But you did a fine job and have a nice looking car out of the deal. I might have to reconsider.
My Datsun 510, trying to answer the Revos:

And the Alpine Renault A442 (A443?) after primer.

Definitely not perfect but good enough for racing in my class with the SRC 936s.

I always like the GT6
...you obviously mean JAMG PLA

We are both wrong the company is JAMG HE and its PLA +. I find it works well on bodyshells giving a smooth finish to complex curves. Currently on Amazon its competitively priced at £16.39 for the black filament.
Cheers

Agreed the PLA+ works quite well. Most of my bodies have been done in that material.
The high speed version works well in the X-Plus3 as well.

1/32 Dragster Funny Car
Had a request some time ago for a 1/24 scale Funny car which was designed and printed and disappeared. Rummaging through my files recently I thought I would print one out at 1/32 scale and design a chassis for it.
This is the result.

And after passing the chassis & shell to Lee at Falcon digital club some fancy paintwork and decals to bring it to life.
