Re: Ferrari 330 P4
Let´s make a fast calculation.
This car is made of almost 300 parts. Most of them had to be modeled and drawn in CAD, requested, ordered, shipped, checked and mounted.
In total half a year work for an single engineer like me. I have 30 years of working experience and made parts for Porsche and the Airbus A380.
That meas 40K for engineering If this was not my private hobby...
Only the machined parts for one car and the engine will cost me more than 10K. Difficult to say how much handwork has to be done, especially on the frame.
The tires and rims should be made only for this car. That will cost 5K for the first car because a mold has to be done
but it is getting cheaper the more I let produce.
We will end up at 20 to 25K for one car out of 10 of a limited edition.
I'm just thinking...

Re: Ferrari 330 P4
The engine is close to finish. That took me one year. This Winter the tube frame will be done. I keep everyone informed...

Re: Ferrari 330 P4
have you made enough parts to assemble 10 cars?

Re: Ferrari 330 P4
The problem with photorealistic renderings is that it looks like you are finished but you did not even start...

Re: Ferrari 330 P4
I still want on the list when you decide to start putting them together.
Re: Ferrari 330 P4
That is absolutely stunning...stunning.
Re: Ferrari 330 P4
My heart is beating faster and faster as I'm looking at the renders.

Emilio, that's because you're still infected with quarter scale

Re: Ferrari 330 P4
I started to built the tube frame. First of all cutting and bending tubes. Therefore it’s good to have a drawing in 1:1…
Re: Ferrari 330 P4
The tube frame is going to be amazing!

Re: Ferrari 330 P4
I hope so...it is my first complete tube frame. I used my lathe as a milling machine, which came out really good.
Re: Ferrari 330 P4
Beautiful.
