Indy Surfers Paradise 1996-2007

[drtumbo]

This is the 2nd of 3 threads I'll be putting in their appropriate areas

As an Australian fan of Indy car who followed religiously from the mid 90s till the final race in 2008 I've made the decision to build up a collection of the pole and winning cars from 1991-2008, while a few of these cars have been released the remainder will need to be conversion of existing cars or using Terry's amazing 3d modelled cars. Aiming to see how many I can get done over the course of 2019

I'll be putting pictures of the finished cars in this post and then the builds later in the thread

2005 Sebastien Bourdais winning car

Lola B02/00 3d printed model from Terry (MicroMachine) I picked up 3 of these to make the 04/5/6 winning cars - since he already had decals for the Bourdais that is first to be done. These things are fantastic! Absolutely beautiful and well made. Such a fan and can't wait to get started on this one

2000 Adrian Fernandez winning car

Going to convert an Action 99 car across (I know there are some minor bodywork differences but much easier to just change the decals)

This will be fascinating to watch. I have a lot of this era built and it will be interesting to see which ones you do. I am currently waiting for the 2012 Dallara kit to be produced soon and then I will be ordering that and the 2018 one. I already have the decals so can't wait.

The differences from 1999 to 2000 bodywork are small so that is a great donor. Keep us up to date on this project, it is a going to be fun to watch this come together.
