Re: Rometsch Spyder replica build
Hello Rich, Believe it or not but I used cheap ass spray cans for painting this car. But I did use the special red pro paint nozzles on it. Result is like in the spray booth. Used no clear coat to obtain the aged effect on the paint. Just like the car is painted 60 years ago. Nobody who saw the car ...

Re: Rometsch Spyder replica build
Quick update.... Dashbord is finished and I did cut out the engine lid and the door. Also I have nearly finished wiring the car. Until now 180 meters of electric wiring has gone in it. And now starting to make the gutters for the engine lid and making the alu firewall behind the seat. Sorry for the ...

Re: Rometsch Spyder replica build
Could not find a doorlock looking a bit original and old so... used some scrap metal and an original knob to make one myself:

Re: Rometsch Spyder replica build
Was wondering how you were getting on with the body mould. Good stuff. What colour you got in mind?? I did not show that here ... I made a inner mould, laminated the glassfiber on the outside and removed the inner mould. So the insite is straight and can be easily panted. Only problem ... the outsi...

Made the wiring loom in the front of the car, head...

Re: Rometsch Spyder replica build
The photo does no justice to the result Kristian. The face is printed on matt plastified paper the kind they use for expensive magazines. I did not made them. I put some two sides sticky tape on the original face and glued the new one on. Some one from the Dutch 356 speedsterforum made them for me. ...

Re: Pre-A Outlaw replica.
Sory, but this "real" outcast did not design the badge, Marco Brandsema did that. It is copyrighted and the 356 speedsterclub is the owner. Mr "Outcast" is still active member to the 356speedsterclub.nl and to the facebook page of wide5outcasts. So we did not kick him out or what...

Re: Pre-A Outlaw replica.
Kristian, clean look from behind but did you trial fitting the engine complete with tinware and the carbs? I see you are using outside hinges but at my Intermeccanica the airfilters had about 0,5 cm clearance with the body ... I used Kadrons. This car and my Intermeccanica were moulded from original...

Re: Pre-A Outlaw replica.
Kristian, nice to know the Mercedes wheel is fitting the 356 wheel center. What is the trick to center the wheelcenter in the rim?
