Hi
Welcome to cyclekarting! What model Auto Union is it and what
year is it from? It's certainly very lovely. There's lots of
curves, so I guess it would depend on what skills and experience
you've got in making body work. There's some simplifications
that could be applied to make it easier to make.

Have a look at my Maserati build photos on the CKGB website,
just one way to do a compound curve body !

Hi StephanN,
It's the 1939 Silver Arrows type D.
I was hoping that the mid seat would help with weight
distribution.
Cheers
Richard

Hi Simon,
I've studied your Masserati which is why I think I can make the
Auto Union.
I have a background in Kitcars and motorbikes.
Cheers Richard

I'm on with a type A at the moment. There is a type A and at
least one type D in the state's. Check out the Gittreville site
for the type A. There is also a type D in Germany. If you go on
the Facebook cyclekart Germany page, you cannot miss it
