MG Writer Posted September 10, 2015 Share Posted September 10, 2015 Many nowadays argue that the BN1/BN2 Austin-Healey 100/4 is one the best looking British sports cars ever made... How about a kit, Mister Airfix?/media/tinymce_upload/54835137d546301ef504351c8db04dc2.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MG Writer Posted October 6, 2015 Author Share Posted October 6, 2015 If it helps, dear Airfix, I can assist with scale blueprints of the actual car. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nmcabecadas Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 I had a problem uploading images with Windows 10 32bits and Edge. The same computer using Chrome didn't have any problems and suddently the bug disappear, maybe after a software upgrade. Try the same image with a different browser.

richyt Posted March 15, 2016 Share Posted March 15, 2016 That's a good looking motor! I think Revell did a version of the 100/6 many years ago, the 50's I think. It was re-issued a few years ago as a limited edition aniverary kit. I know it's not exactly the same, but you might still be able to find on on E-bay?

You're right that Revell did the 100/6; a good but quite old kit. But the 100/6 is actually quite a different car to the original 100/4, which was four inches shorter between the doors and front wheels, had a very different radiator grille and also was raced by the factory at Sebring and Le Mans. Actually I have been making my own entirely scratch built version with a hand-carved beech body pattern from which I have already made a mould and a hollow body shell. It's a long term spare time project which I hope will look good enough when it's finished. But if they made a decent kit I could save the effort!

MG Writer Posted June 1, 2016 Author Share Posted June 1, 2016 The wooden master was made using scaled factory plans, and the grey shape is a thin casting made in a rubber mould /media/tinymce_upload/c363372e61b693ee09d94fc1c6d39f04.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
