Nice roll cage, as usual. Looks very authentic.

JC,
Your roll cage really came out look great. And those AM wheels and tires are spectacular. I'm really impressed with the fact that you can look right through the openings and see the brake details just like in the real wheels.

Great project - the Fujimi Enthusiast series make a great platform - just have a tendency to make 1 part into 3. The stance looks just right from the mock up. I have a 1974 RS 3.0 which I have used as a base kit for the Mark Donoghue IROC Series winner which is modified by a HRM resin kit with decals that is coming along fine - about 80% finished. The car was bought by a Melbourne car dealer about 5 or 6 years ago and I have seen it doing laps at Phillip Island.Lucky to take some reference photos that day which have come in handy.Look forward to seeing progress on yours.
Steve.

I plan on building an IROC in the future. |

JC,
I'm a little lost with those pictures of the fuel filler receptacles. I'm assuming that these are the real ones that you're going to model?

Correct Joel. Found some good pictures of the actual parts that show how they function so I thought I would share them. Not going to open the hood however and detail the front compartment.

I'm going to have to check Scale Productions out. I've got a build coming up that I may have to source some of those tires from.
Good looking project here JC.

Had to remove the front body mount to make room for the oil cooler I fabricated. Created an old school AMT style body mount.  The oil cooler will receive a debris screen during final assembly.  Found some nice brake rotors (cross drilled them and added color detail). I believe they are from a Fujimi wheel set, don't recall which one.  |
