Pouln Posted November 11, 2021 Share Posted November 11, 2021 Nick, you have created a fantastic realistic engine model. Brilliant👌 There is one important piece missing though…. An engine lift to get the Pocher engine out and install this one😉 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KaiPaul Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 incredible, unbeleavable - not even in German i would find the right words! If i wouldn'd know, i couldn't beleave, that this is "just an other F40" MODELL engine! Congratulations! I think this is one of the all-time-benchmarks! Thanks for showing us this miracle.

Kai That’s very kind thank you. I’ll find out how I got on with it at the scale model world championships when I collect it tomorrow! The competition was outstanding, so not overly hopeful!

Buster99 Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 Deeply impressive build, a true masterpiece! I love it! As much as I dislike the use of the word "awesome", it would still fall short to describe what you have achieved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ade H Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 And there's a little hole at the top to mount it on a gold chain. Handy! 😁 Sincerest congratualtions, Nick. I would really like to see a company produce a kit of this or some other engines. If you ever decide to go into business, you can count on me as a customer!

albergman Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 Well done Nick!! I reckoned you'd come away with something. May I ask where the award fits in the scheme of things ... Best in show? Best scratch build? ??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

albergman Posted November 15, 2021 Share Posted November 15, 2021 "JUST" a class win! At a show of this size and calibre that's no small feat I'd guess. I've been sharing your progress with a friend and he's curious whether you might embark on any of the great engines from the 60's ... Cosworth FORD V8, Gurney-Weslake V12 or the Ferrari 312? Any idea where your imagination might lead you next? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
