Volkswagen Van Type 2 Slot Car - Body and Chassis

This model derived from my high-def 2.5m polygon scan. It is scaled at 1/32 for slot car models. This is slightly different to my previous attempts and think it is considerably better than my previous slot car models. The chassis is printed in PLA and the body in resin. Additionally I have used PLA for wheels, axles, pullies.

Added updated wheel and axle set. This rear axle sticks to the print bed better and the rear wheels are more secure with nice solid click!

Things you will need to buy/scavenge! :-

Motor & Pickup (pref prewired)
There are plenty of used scalextric parts on ebay - look out for the "disc" pickup. Designed for pickup on left (see image). Drill the small pulley out to 2mm so that it pushes on tight to the motor axle.
Look on Ebay for item number 154686635899

Tyres x4
there are plenty of used tyres to choose from on ebay - 20mm diameter is a good size.
Look on Ebay for item number 154208434090

Rubber Bands x2 (or Drive Belt)
I bought a selection for cassette tape drive and found the smallest to be ideal. Use a pair of 23mm or 25mm diameter to avoid slipping.
Look on Amazon for part number B07VZX45T1

Ball Bearings 11x5x5 (ext diam x int diam x thickness)
Look on Amazon for part number B08F25KSWB.

Pickup braid
If your motor/pickup doesn't come with pickup braids you can buy 50cm length - cut to about 25mm or 1".
Look on Amazon for part number B0BYPDDLCQ.

The one I've printed is very yellow! I'm working on my air-brush skills before ruining this one ;-)
