Having fun, is the most important in this hobby. 
But also in everything we doā¦
I like the color you paint your dashboard, I didnāt think about it yetā¦ So will seeā¦
I painted the engine, I think looks little better soā¦
More too comingā¦
Yes, you have made a big improvement to the appearance of the engine!
For the dashboard: it was black plastic, and I brushed a light coat of brown acrylic over it, leaving brushmarks intentionally to simulate wood grain. The floor is painted flat aluminum, with a thin black wash over it to make it look a little dirty and worn.
Keep the progress pix coming!
Thank you!
I will keep in mind what you did, so I can have an idea for the dashboard. Mine is in metal, not plastic.
I made the horn support, and add part of the hornā¦
I got the new chassis support, so finally I can start to work on the chassisā¦
Thatās strange, because I built both of the Alfa models, and do not remember any chassis support pieces that looked like that. Perhaps there were different versions of the kits at different times. Huhā¦ Where do they go, how are they used?
The kit has the one like in pics, that they are ok, but they are wrong if you look the support on the original car. I have already removed the original support, and now I need to drill the 3 holes for each side, and attach the new support. So finally I can start to paint the chassisā¦
Yesterday I made the new springs, the black one are rubber and came with the kit.
Just finished to paint the chassisā¦ Toke me a lot of time, but Iām pretty happy how it came out.
Soon some pics.
Here a pics of the main chassisā¦ Need other parts on it, but I need to scratch build themā¦
Other chassis partsā¦
I was able to remove the battery cage, without ruin too much this pieceā¦
Little sandingā¦
Cut the fuel pump bracketā¦
And here painted like a piece of wood, with two new support.
The radiatorā¦
Those Pocher kits look like a very serious affairā¦ How big will the car be when completed? Youāre doing a great job on this one, thanks for sharing
Pawel
Thank you Pawel!
I try to make it more real as I can, above all trying to remove all the errors that it hasā¦ 
It is a lot of work involved, in assemble and disassemble it before paint and the final assembleā¦ But it is fun!!!
I donāt know how big it will be, Iām not there yet! The chassis is long 45cm, and the widest part (back) almost 12cm. A tire diameter is 9,5cmā¦ I hope those helps for have an idea.
Thank you for looking!
These Pocher cars are 1/8 scale, so theyāre pretty big (and heavy- lots of metal parts.) They are approximately 18 inches long.
By the way, nice work, Brizio! I didnāt paint mine, except for a few details, but now I wish I had! You are making a big improvement throughout the model.
Thank you! You can always disassemble it and paint it.
NO WAY! That is definitely NOT a reversible process! [;)]
Ok!
I was looking a the body, and some pics from 1/1 Alfas, and something was differentā¦ Until I tried the body-firewall-chassisā¦
Watch this picsā¦
And now watch the real carā¦ (this is the Touring model, it has the same body of the one Iām building, the only difference is the wing on the back and two spare tires.
The air vent on the real car are much closer to the door than the model I have. So, Iām thinking to cut the bodyā¦ This also will help to have the firewall in the correct position. Now it stay under the cockpit, instead to in front of it.
Dang! Looks like a major surgery! I wish you good luck with it. Have a nice day
Pawel
