Talking

Hi, where unsure if I should post a project thread, but friends pushed me



I'm trying to build a car the way I want.

The car is an Volvo 142 -73. They are rather common i Sweden, but all of them are piston-engineed.

It started with a simple 4-link-build. But now it all has got out of hands...



I will post as much pictures as possible, but there is alot old pictures so I also link my older swedish project-thread so you all can se my progress-pictures.



I let the pictures talk for them self at first. Visit my album at Photobucket, to much to upload!

All work is done by myself.



Right now I'm all hands with the 4rotor-build from my own CADs and handwork.

Everything is made in house.

Have problem to post images?! How many pictures can I have in every post??



A teaser...





Best Regards

Had problems yesterday with posting pictures in the first message. The warning "too many pics...." came up al the time...



So, about the project. This is old pictures. Started on this build in the spring 2010. Have had a little summer-break, and are back on track.

But will put up som older pictures first, so you all ca follow it in the right way



More 4rotor build...

A little bonus. I'm doing a little air-cooled 10cc rc-engine when I have time over...

And that's not often I'm afraid...

This is how it could look when I'm measure an 20B-shaft





Have only rough-turned the both sides to 46mm, will drill the oil-chanel and so on before I do the fine-cut.

Sorry for the fast rewind



Have started on the two loose ends. And as I did with the main-shaft, I spared a few bucks taking a smaller material, but then I have to turn the centre from an excenter from start. But why not All you can save in money you can have more fun fore

Have started on the big end's inside of the lose lobs. Sorry for my bad english, don't know realy what the name's are for things But you'll understand by the pictures I hope

As you can see they are about 10mm to long, just to keep the key-grip. With the keygrip I know where to put the holes and so on, without indicate on the lobe.

Only M24x1.5 in the front, and splines for the counterweight in the back, then ready for grinding!
