That's some time and work you've put into that, it shows too, going off the last couple pics you posted you wouldn't even know its 3d printed, well done dude, that's probably THE BEST, 3d printed body iv ever saw

Thank you, sir. Yeah, it's been a hell of a ride. Once I get a process down it'll get easier and easier. The mustang 5.0 foxbody is already much easier.

I will have some updates on this soon, waiting for stuff I ordered like the lighting kit and tint for the head/tail lights.

Sad Sad day my friends. I got home. It was so nice out. I thought I'll sit on the porch and do some finishing touches on the Supra body. Set it on the railing. Bumped it with my back fat and off she went. 12ft fall.

Bad news and good news.... Ok its all bad news. It was in 3 pieces with and 7 major cracks in total, but it is now back as one piece. Fully sanded back down. Def gonna need Bondo then Primer. My heart sank.

Well now I know what it takes to repair these bodies lol. All the joints that were shoegoo'd survived just fine. So once im done its all getting fiber tape and shoegoo.

I had a moment when I thought i'll just print a whole new body.... Then OH HELL NO!!! REPAIR REPAIR!!

 

[BruceRC]

Aww, sorry to see this, man. But hey, if anybody can make lemonade with these lemons...

ITS ME!

Lol JK (sorta) Sorry about the body. sucks when work falls off the porch.

All good its already repaired. My plant doesn't have production Sat. Sun. so I'll work from home. She will be back to her original glory in no time... Just devastating on the brain initially

Again what else am I doing with my life anyway

Lets just call it a durability test!!

Just ran across this thread. Nice work... Lots of work.

Are you planning to cut the windows out and fit Lexan?

On the mustang 5.0 I did, not on this. This will just custom make my own black vinyl ones.

Supra body is almost ready for another big reveil. Got the light buckets properly tinted and lighting kit all installed and working. Made a new body latching system that is super beefy and will be used on the foxbody as well. OMG I cant wait for the burnout video!! It's gonna be epic!!

So Painful!
I'm sorry to see that..

LMAO!!! It's an odd house, 4 car garage is the 1st story of the actual house is the second story!! So the deck/proch is way up there... The supra is almost back to its former glory. The only reason its not done is people keep placing orders for crap lol.

I have agreed to do a supra body for a friends infraction for $300. So i've put most of my time into it and sidelined my current projects a bit. Also I bought a file for it so its a bit more detailed. Has all the body panel cracks/lines and even has the yota logo on the hood.

 

[nomis38]

Well I got her back to her former glory. But she is being sidelined for paying customers. I need another printer lolol. Updates will be very sparse right now.
