1955 Oldsmobile 88 Sedan Rally car - Kevan - 3rd-Sep-22

This isn't a car I would have even considered before but an upcoming interesting proxy got me searching through 50's film footage of the Monte Carlo Rally, lo and behold this huge monster was spotted rounding a downhill left hand hairpin and I thought...THAT'S the one!

Luckily there's a 3D file available for this car so was duly purchased, setup and printed.

3D printed in a triple blend resin, will have a 3D printed chassis, possibly a SW.

This is now sprayed with etch primer whilst I decide on the main colour.

This is definitely one that will be seen on our Rally stages...but not sure it's a wise choice for a proxy that has some plastic tracks and a hump back bridge...

I know nothing about these things, and never will.  I must confess I have had my doubts, there are many poor prints out there.
But your result speaks for itself!
This one, and the Alfa, are looking really good!
Stupid question maybe, but what is your cost for producing such a body?

Chassis is printed, SW pod.

I've also drawn and printed a Rally plate, 1mm thick, should look good stuck on the front bumper.
