I have some news for all of you 1:43 scale. I have changed designers and I have the new 2020 Indy Car with windscreen. Also we have produced accurate wheels/tires. You can either buy from me on Shapeways, Evil Bay or direct with me. The photo for the car isn't mine but they are extremely close. No driver.

Terry: These tiny treasures are very cool! How are you going to get the windscreen clear? Can you sand it? Tim

I have been thinking about that. I have 2 options. First, I can leave them as is or you can cut out the glass part and then add clear plastic. (I'm going to try the clear plastic first.

Following these with great interest. Because we finally have another Dutchie on the grit in Rinus Veekay (van Kalmthout) I need some too in the future I think.
And at which seller at Shapeways? Found out they ship very fast.

Found out they ship very fast. Indy Car Models. That's mine. Wait a few days before ordering. We are tweking it now. When they show up in my shop next time they are good to go.

Here's two pictures of my 2020 Indy Car with a new windshield. To cut around the windscreen was very easy. Also this is a "mule" that I'm working on so don't look at my paint job.

Doesn't the aeroscreen runs to the airbox, a bit up where the cockpit surroundings are? w I'd love to see some different angles of the wheels and tires also. But it looks very promising.

You are probably right, I will look into this more. I will get some more pictures of wheels/tires and post them,

New tires and wheels look good, Terry.
Constructively, I think the front tires might be too wide and the spoke pattern on the rims is not current.

They look really nice, but isn't it an idea to do the tyres and wheels seperate to get better results with painting.

However, I do offer the tires only if you want. Also we had to go with this spoke pattern because the accurate they would not print. Thin walls, etc.
