Mark Donohue's first entry at Indy 500, finishing seventh. Car is a Lola T-152 TC Offy powered with unique turbo setup. When I built the 1969 VPJ car, I made resin copies for some parts of the Lola T-150/152 family for future builds. Adding front and rear wings from 0.2 mm brass sheet, and air intakes from 0,12 mm aluminum sheet. Body primed and seat&dashboard assembled. Ready for paint job. |

Oh man! At it again junjo! Great stuff, another great one to watch! I see you got a head start this time by having most of your parts already cast?

Can't wait to see this one done, then you need to do his 1970 car! Stellar work as usual.

Awesome. This car has been on my 1/18th scale list for about 5 years. Maybe someday I will get to it but in the meantime will enjoy watching this!

This is looking really good! Always thought this was an interesting car with the way the turbo was mounted. Interesting story in "The Unfair Advantage!"

Man, what a great car. Wish this one was done in a kit. Will enjoy the master work of Juanjo on this one, though.

Some updates: Suspensions done. Not a fan of rivets, they always seem out of scale to me, but on this car the polished rivets on the maintenance covers are a remarkable part of this car. Self made from 0,12 mm aluminum sheet and 0.4 mm drill bit. |
