a solid month making the side pods equal and the engine cover fit. Not quite done yet but close. Had to use the 1999 Reyanrd road course wings bt made them fit in snug.  |

Great job on it! I'm still trying to make the Lola front wing. Thus why no updates to my PT carhave been posted for like a year. Its a hard one to make.

Yes, yes it can. I had Michael do the decals in the fall of 12 so it's been on the books for a long time. To me this is the best looking indycar / champ car what have you that ever raced! |

The wing with all it's cascades would be a bear to mold, too many places to trap rubber. But maybe the mold making guru Lance could do it. The mold I have of the DW12 only has the back lower cascade molded, the front ones are a separate mold to be glued in place. |

Great job Kevin. I bought these decals from Michael and it's on my long to do list. Plus it's an Oriol car and he is one of my favs.

I'm hopeing someone does a 3D print before I get back to my PT car so I don't have to mess with building that wing! So fingers crossed.

No doubt about it, 3D printing will be sweet to help out in the future of diecast customizing. I just wish I knew how it works exactly as I'm completely brainless in that area. Sounds cool for those who know how to work it though
