DARRACQ

 Today the fuel pump was completed. I'm also taking the opportunity to show the operation of the homemade rotating support, simple but very useful and practical for those who enjoy this kind of work like me. It allows you to work on the miniature in all positions, from underneath and from the sides inside. Here are some photos of Darracq's progress.

DARRACQ

 Hello everyone, today the Darracq seats were completed. After overcoming some difficulties, everything is finished.

The next step will be building the steering wheel and all the associated components. It's quite complicated, as you can see, but I want to see if I can make it work.

Some photos of the various stages of building the front seat. I hope you enjoy.

DARRACQ

 Today, the rear side seats were completed, with only minor adjustments remaining for their attachment to the rear compartment. Next up will be the front seat, a bit more complex and laborious, but with calm, patience, and precision, it will also be completed. See below for this compilation.


Thank you for your interest and for the comments you've shared about this project.

DARRACQ

 Hello everyone, thank you for your interest in my new Darracq project.


Today I received the paint I had tinted to bring it as close to the original color as possible. Since the holidays have given me more strength and energy to move forward, I'm sending you some photos of the paint job on the front wheels and the exterior of the rear seats. The seat guards are also finished with tufted padding, as you can see.

Front wheel, first painting test. The paint quality is acrylic.




External painting of the seat and backrest of the guards already in place.
As you can see, the cushioning with the capitone buttons is finished.


As you can see, the painting is done with an airbrush, here is a rear view of the seats, being tested.
