  1. I use one Ixo, one Eaglemoss, and a load of fishtanks of which the latter is the cheapest as an alternative. I have made base plates from MDF myself, so you can stack them easily. These fish tanks are like 30 euros each, they only have black sealant seams, but that doesn't bother me.
  2. What has been mentioned different times before is that there were many different versions of this car in the past and that each version had its differences and colors. If you take 10 pictures from the internet you see different things on each, I think it's very difficult to say what is the exact correct. Personally, I just did what I liked the best.
  3. Its definitely the 583 one, it's my longest Pocher model and barely touches my 60cm display case inside. It is 5-6mm glass so the inside must be close to the 583 😉
  4. Welcome! I could not find a prepared or designated spot so I glued mine in the best position I could find
  5. Right, didn't see that video. Thanks. Does not look good indeed. If you heat it you can bend the casting but without heating it will break. But better to ask Horny for replacement parts
  6. Great progress and good work on the pipes @cmatthewbacon After trying various types of gold for the mirrors without the desired result, I'm back to a gloss black as a base coat for the next attempt. If anyone wants to know what it looks like with black mirrors, let me know and I'll upload a photo
  7. Mine is also starting to take shape, but there is still plenty to do. The nose is loose, the same for the rear spoiler. The dashboard and steering wheel, etc. still have to be done as well, but it is going in the right direction. I want to respray the inside of the upper part where the rider sits because it does not look nice. Same for the mirrors, there is a casting seam on the outside. Has anyone ever found out what color number the gold paint is?
  8. Nice work on everything Schummie. Just curious, could you fit the cooler on the back with the right top bolt like that?
  9. Manual 2, Page 17 There are 3 braided lines/hoses which are flat. If you put a little metal wire inside it looks much better, especially the corners. Manual 3, page 31. You should be using A screws for the silver parts but they are too long. I used V screws from the Pocher Panigale because I could not find fitting ones with the lotus. Update on the updated manual, follow the blue lines and not the red ones.
  10. I always use a bit of engine oil, a little bit with a toothpick in the hole, and start screwing. Take it easy and sometimes turn back if it is too heavy to avoid breaking
