A work in progress, my personal Holy Grail of F-1 cars.
Mel Ault's, Pre-Wing creation, at long last, the one and only, pretty close to looking like the real thing, let me introduce to you:
JIM CLARK'S CHAMPIONSHIP WINNING LOTUS 25 R-4
Mel Ault's latest Pre-Wing Creation: the Elusive 1963 Lotus 25.
My usual build using a Beardog Mk 3 chassis, but I had to use Colin Sparks front wheels, (the jury is still out on those). The gear is the latest creation of Max Rossmassler, 3d printed bronze 1mm offset gears, they work great and allow a realistic back end. Well here it is sitting in it's primer suit, just about ready for Racing Green, a Yellow stripe and Marc's Immense Miniatures Jimmy Clark.
