I cracked. Edou it's YOUR FAULT!
The man who sold me the bear hawk parts sold a mercedes C11 with a semi good body. But desire is stronger than intelligency
Only the central plastic frame and front tires need to be replace. (for the frame it is just to have a perfect base).
The body needs front headlights and to be clean and repaint.
Just for fun and have another tam in the collection...
I need to, D3 parts and a 16 toothes motor pinion.

Maybe I need headlights to.
If somebody have thems...
I want to make my headlights just to test. someone has an idea?

Please don't get me started on Group Cs again.
Headlight lexan probably cracked at collision (like my runner).
I could sorta fix it on my car and put some LEDs in it :





Wish I had a spare for ya (no battery holder either)...

HAHAAAAA! Edou, II had the same idea this morning. I want to make a false pair of headlights but it is more difficult than I though. I found that a hole is made under the wing just to put a 3 mm led. I have the leds. I just need to make headlights
The body has a lot of brokes and I don't know how to repair it...

The bathtube is repaired with araldite. Correct but not very well state. Why not make a FRP version???
Edou it is your conscience wich talk to you!!!

Hi guys,

Yeahhh The F40 is the prettiest for me.
Good luck it is a simple but very nice chassis

Come on, guys. Quit it!

Look at my forum signature though.

Man... C11, F40, NSX and so on. Awesome lineage...

Stingray, I've made a carbon F40 of course (be it on an F102)!
And I always had the idea to put the C11 on F103L FRP...
Parts (chassis plates) don't come around much though.
Ultimately, it should fit on an F201 chassis as well.

Sorry Bram, I'm gonna build a box art F101 (ancestor of them all) too.

Edou, just a Group C special chassis, not a F102 one. just for fun.
For my perso info:
are differents wheelebases on group C?

Yep, C11 is long and F40 is short (similar to F101, F102 and so on).
It's got to do with how you put on the front end...
And the different ways you can attach part A6 :

I wrote:

A Group C chassis can be varied in length by using a different hole to attach the front on the chassis.
For the longer setting (on the C11 for example) part A6 is attached :

The first hole in the chassis is then used :

The F40 on the other hand does not use this plastic part :

And thus a shorter length can be created by using the last hole :

And I think the 300ZX for example uses a setting in between.
Then you flip A6 around...

The F103L double deck design is pretty awesome btw...
