This is an amazing project I for one will be following this. As a fabricator myself I am very impressed with your work. You have fantastic skill.

Its definitely not real and could never be made to fire anything, in the mad world that we live in, I decided better safe than sorry. The Magazine is an original and the 2cm round is inert ,other than that, its all fabrication and a bit of turning. I painted it with matt black under coat and then weathered it with a wire wool and a green kitchen washing up scrubber. I am glad you think it looks realistic it makes it worth the effort.

Good question but as I have never heard an original its going to be hard to replicate. The details of the automotive side of things ,is a subject that I haven't quite got my head around yet. A petrol V8 would be good but of more concern is the gearbox. I want the interior to look right as well as work and as the original had a remote gear box and clutch, (that is, separate from the engine) I cant ,at the moment, find a cost effective solution. I have plenty of ideas but I keep finding snags. Still, plenty of time to dream. An ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Jon
