Cost Cutter
I needed a Cummins engine for one of my planned truck projects, but having been caught by import duties on my last Cummins kit from Australian resin kit maker Auslowe, the risk of having to pay these again on a second order made the cost of the kit a little harder to justify.
So I decided to build the engine from scratch using scrap Plasticard and Plastruct sections and taking the Auslowe kit as a guide.
This is the result - a fit-for-purpose engine which should slot neatly into the intended Atkinson Borderer model.
