Well, I'm working on this one for ages. You see, I keep starting projects, so I end up with a lot of different unfinished things. But I started working on the 787B again, because there is a competition overhere for the best model, and that means I'd have to finish before october. Wonder if I'll make it...

I got some plastic today, so next project is to make Toe-Eliminators for the rear uprights. I got one meter of POM(PolyOxyMethylene) so there will be made as many as i can. Im just in need of EXACT measurements from hIGGI.

How many do you need higgi?
Ill send you five sets, the inner diameter is 22mm. exactly.
I thought that i could have them done by the time you send me the memorystick for my friends camera, it would have been easier to send the metal inserts with it.
Can you have made five sets (10 pieces) of inserts for me?
Just mail me your adress and Ill send them ASAP.

Kim, those things look pretty good. If I ever start that Seven look-a-like (used to be called locost, but already changed name to midcost ) I'll ask you to make some bushings

Cool KIM! i am mailing you my address asap. I already mailed memorystick yesterday. I will try to get steel inserts done next week, i don`t do machining by myself so it does not depend only on me, but i will try my best.
5 sets are fine, i doubt we will ever install them all but it would be good to have them ready ;o)

If only I had enough money...
This would be it; but of course I'd want a rotary (Renesis?) in it...



It's made in Belgium, is part of Gran Turismo 3 (racing version), it's powered by Alfa Romeo, and it is (was) world record holder 0-60mph. IT'S FAST!

Gillet Vertigo it is indeed... Wonderfull car, I saw it live several times, both race as street version, and I was stunned each time. The elegance of this design is breathtaking, so agressive, yet so clean. And only 103.000euro's. Wouldn't that be something for Ace?

Bart...nice photo's. I absolutely love it from the back. Maybe, a little more aggressive exhaust would finish it off nicely. The front is good too but, somethings off??... Maybe the windsheild needs to be more round like a Porsche 962?? not sit so high?? Would be a great Rotary project like you said.

The car has been under development ever since the first one was built. a lot of details changed over the years, and the "Streiff" (race driver) version even got something that look like doors. The car is in my opinion near perfect, but indeed the exhaust isn't that well. My wife promised me I can buy one, if we win the lottery
