Re: 1/4 Scale 1970 C3 Corvette

http://blog.rcbodyshop.fr/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/wc3printmai2020.jpg here is a new version, in 2012 I made a model to mill on a CNC, now I print a new one I made from a 3d model I bought. I fix the errors on the model and make it printable. I will not use the printed model as bodyshell but only...

Re: 1/4 Scale 1970 C3 Corvette

My goal is to make a complete display car. I can sell simple bodyshell without paint for 400€. just need to notice that C3 is a narrow car, narrower than some classic chassis (maybe I can make wide fender option to glue to body https://www.supercars.net/blog/wp-content/uploads/2016/03/1968_Chevrolet...
