When was developing my models, several colleagues asked me about to make this model....well i just could not resist...
Started this model some time ago (two months...i think) and now i know that it's viable. For this reason i'm starting this new thread....i'll make it by the end.
At this moment i really have few time to work in this, but after the second part of october i want to finish it.
..This is the real car and what i'm doing...
You know, not to be serious about this but, my car uses the same 1600cc 'fridge' engine. I happen to like that engine a lot even if it is not a Ferrari v12.

Had forgot about this one, had downloaded it a long time ago and see a couple of revisions were done to it that I needed to get. Thanks,
Oh, rebuilt a friend's 1600 for him years ago, did a few little upgrades for it and it was a pretty good runner.

And thanks for resurrecting this thread from me too Mike. I missed the thread first time round, but I've now read right through it ... Not only did I enjoy watching the design being worked out, but I was pleasantly surprised to find the download was still available. Not only that, I also ran into an excellent model of the Peterbilt 281 tanker from the movie "Duel". I'm really looking forward to building that one.
