1/12 Lotus 97T - upgraded PMA

Post by Redbox »

Hi everybody,
I missed to post this work from last summer.
It is a diecast upgrade project based on 1/12 Minichamps Lotus 97T.

I designed and 3D printed some upgrades.
After removing the sad, toyish, driver figure a number of cockpit parts were scratched: seat, buckles, padding, turned Top Studio switches, carbon decals and other bits.

The engine: ignition cables came in a yellow/gummy/over scaled blob...
I made 6 new coils with scale wires.
New tubing around the bay, oil radiator repositioned.
ECU and fuel lines added over the tank.
Some PE nuts here and there.

Banjo fittings (not visible) on brake calipers with brake lines, chromed wheels, completely new wheel nuts in 3 parts.

Added JPS decals + missing Philips from Museum Co.
Hope you like it:
