You are going to hate me for this but as an Alfa owner with a 45 year history (currently own a 65 GT coupe) and also have several Pocher kits, please please get rid of the imitation wood dash panel. It makes the car look like a replica kit car. No Alfa spyder was ever made with that. All panels were painted black or silver or in some cases the body color.

Hah! I also reverse engineer classic car parts. Last job was replacing Tucker cylinder heads cast in aluminum. No I did not do the casting.

Very nice work.  Did you mean 1886 versus 1986?  😁   

I am looking forward to seeing more of your metal work on the log.

Yes 1886. K.U.K. Navy or Austro Hungarian navy. had an uncle stationed at Pola.

I have just joined. I am retired bench jeweler with 45 years of metal working experience. Soldering,forming,casting,etc. At the moment I am building a 1986 torpedo boat,the SMS Sperber. The hull and structures are printed but there is a lot of other metal work involved. Photo shows the rudder and skeg is made out of copper sheet. I have also cast some stanchions in 1/25 scale for the boat.

Hello fellow builders,modelers. I am in the process of building a 1/25 scale 1886 SMS Sperber. The model is printed on a Prusa printer in sections. The hull sections are 7.5 inches and there is 9 of them. The hull is done and primed. The drive train is being installed. It has been a long project with many re visions.  The rudder and slag is made out of copper sheet.
