Mercedes1908 GP

Description 1:18 scale model of the winning car of the 1908 French Grand Prix. This racing classic had a power of 135 HP. The model is created by viewing photographs and videos obtained from various websites specialized in classic cars.   The pieces to print are the following: You must print 2 units of chain, 2 units of tires and 4 units of wheels. The rest of the files only need one drive.   To assemble the pieces it will be necessary to use glue, small cutting pliers and a cutter to remove the printing supports and sandpaper to adjust the joints if necessary.   The first thing will be to glue the dashboard to the inside of the body. To do this, we will apply glue to the floor of the body and insert the dashboard, tilting it slightly.   Next we glue the radiator in its hole.   We join the steering bar to the chassis by gluing it at the three points indicated in the photograph.     We continue gluing the chassis to the body, joining it so that the tabs coincide with their gaps. We glue the transmission block and the exhaust pipe to the lower part of the body.   To assemble the rear leaf springs, we will insert the front part of the leaf spring into the axle. It is very important not to glue the leaf spring to the shaft. The rear leaf springs only have glue on the rear flange, where they join the chassis. We may need to sand the shaft a little to insert the leaf spring into it. The union should not have play, but it should enter without effort.     We introduce the rear axle and with it we also put the chains.   We glue the rear tire support, the oil tank to the bottom of the right seat, the brake lever and the belt to the front hood. Finally, we glue the four wheels on their axles, taking care that they are well aligned.
