Jordan J192 (Tamiya conversion)

Post by Hein »

Hi guys!

Here some pictures of a project i recently started. This conversion has been done before by several builders, that inspired me to also try this one.
Decals set from ST27 is on ist's way from Bestbalsakits.

I wil try to make the (bulgy cowling that most of you probably dislike.. :lol: ) late season version.

More pictures will follow.

started on the modification of the airbox cowl shape, cut off a part of the original top and sand it flat. cut and sanded the rough shape out of PU tooling block.
now it needs some 2k putty and more sanding and shaping.

Thanks!!

I did some small mods to the radiator openings of the side pods this morning.

It is a fun project to work on. Probably it will not be 100% accurate but i will try to catch the shape and looks of the car as good as i can.

Thanks for looking!
