Ford 429er made from a McLaren M6 file, like the original.

I will put a wing on it, eventually.

Chappyman,
Interesting conversion to get a unique car, can you show some pics from the CAD file highlighting the changes from the M6 please.

Cheers
John

It's mostly the flat surfaces behind the driver.....I didn't mess with the front end at all.

Put the little scoops on the sides. that's about it. I just looked at pictures and tried to make it close.

If you want the later model you will need to add the wrap around spoiler at the rear.

What changes did you make to the 312p files?

The original 312P files were pretty slab-sided unlike the real cars. So these are much more rounded.

March 707

March 707 (one of the cheese dish shapes I can create without scanning) designed in CAD as shown below,

then, printed.

Front winglets have been removed from the shell and added to the chassis so as to facilitate the chassis using them as outriggers (wood track use) in lieu of a front splitter.

AW boxer chassis being refined and on the printer soon.
