Title: 1/32 Mercedes D.IIIa Crankcase
Post by: uncletony on July 12, 2023, 09:27:27 AM
Yet another revamped older design; a replacement crankcase for the Mercedes D.IIIa block in 1/32. My rendition addresses my personal peeves with the with the WNW offering:

1) the bottoms of the cylinders are not part of the block
2) the carburetor intakes on the lower half are opened up
3) bolt patterns are corrected (WNW used a generic bolt pattern neither correct for D.III or D.IIIa)
4) AWOL middle motor mounts
5) more stuff I can't remember
