241023 JL -version vavoom06 replaces version 05 it is updated with the seat separated out now so all parts can be painted independent.
My favorite "cigar" car from my childhood. Bobo got the look perfectly, but I wanted it to be bigger, so I split the body into 4 pieces instead of two. At 100% print, I adjusted the wheels to use 1/4-20 bolts as axles and they work great. When it came to painting the model however, I feel it would be better to have all the parts separated by their colors, so that is what I did (I haven't done the car seat yet though.) The version shown in the picture is the 1.1 version at 14" long, pretty good, but with my prusa, I can turn it 50 degrees and print at 140%, giving me a 20" version. As a result, the 1/4-20 bolts wont work, so I've included a set of 1/4-20 bolts that you will also have to enlarge. I think the front bolts, might be a bit long, cut them down after printing. The Back, longer bolts should be fine. The bushings are split in two in the back, one piece inside the wheel and free, the other piece glued into the body, it might need a shim or baking powder. The front bushings will definitely have to be cut down and glued into the ring holders.
