Great!! :D Same happened to me while developing the F6A. Didn't find pics with seat, but the bare metal cockpit looks quite uncomfy so I decided a seta should be added. BTW, I used a quite similar one! Don't forget about the fire extinguisher, it was under driver's knees ;-)

Wow! Custom vacuum formed wind shield and seat!? This is really coming along nicely! Very well done! A convincing F6 replica!

Thanks guys !!!!
It is time to shift to another project !!!! I know there are many things that should be corrected.... you make some modifications and later you realised that you should have gone further !!!!!
Now, let's find an "easy" kit in the pile ;)

You're done? Congratulations! A beautiful build of a rare subject! It's nice to be able to see the Copersucar F6 shape from all angles now. Really interesting to know how Fittipaldi's ride looked from the top, front, back and sides. We can tell so much from looking at model like yours!

Thanks for sharing this WIP, Jean-Paul. Open yourself a bottle of champagne, and give your next build a nice long think.

Cheers, Chris
