Hi,

I'm Sándor, Suzuki Swift fan from Hungary.
I've just find redlinegti.com as I've looked for Mk 1 and Mk 2 GTi photos in the internet to step forward a project: to create and produce 1/43 scale resin models of Swift Mk 1 and Mk 2 GTi.

The modelling job is made by my friend Mik, I'm responsible for the prototyping and production.

I would ask for your help, to get good quality reference photos of both Mk 1 and Mk 2 GTi floor, undercarriage and suspension.
I can offer for your help 1 - 1 pieces of 3D printed test samples (1 pc Mk 1 and 1 pc Mk 2) and 1 - 1 pieces of pre-series resin models. ( Mk 1 if you share Mk 1 pictures and Mk 2 if you send me Mk 2 pictures)


So I can give four models in all for those who share useable picuters of their car's floor / undercarriage / suspension. If there will be more, I will raise the number of the presents of course

It will take some time, to produce the final model, so I would ask patience for the delivery of the presents.

BTW, I'm just starting a diorama model company (to fund the modelcar business), named Mr.
Wolff's Garage: https://www.facebook.com/mrwolffsgarage/ - if you are interested in modelcars diorama, please check in my Facebook store (and later my webshop also)
My modelcar business is not public now, but if you like it, I will share with you guys

Best regards:
Sándor

Nice work, the area just in front of the Windscreen is a area with a grill for air so the bonnet does mot reach right to the screen as with later models .. will see what I can get you in the way of images

Like your Facebook page as well.

Dear Neo,

Thank you for draw our attention on that detail, really appreciate - I have forwarded it to Mik!

I saw your like on my page, thank you very much! The modelcar page is not open right now, but I will share it as soon as we have something to upload there.

Let me share some actual detail: Mik has just finished the door handle

De floor / undercarriage / suspension photos are highly needed - but also every mentions for details are warmly welcome. We want to make a detailed and realistic model line.

Looks good mate is it possible for you to make one of a mk3 gti?

Cheers

Hi Sandor,

Project looks really good! I have a Mk1 and am happy to send you some photos of what you require.
I probably cannot help with the undercarriage very well as I do not have access to a hoist, however the floor and suspension I can do.
PM me your email address and I can send the photos there.

A little update of the project.
We have detailed the carbody by your response - thanks for the help and the sent pictures!

Looking good! Front and rear bumpers extend out more in an unmodified gti.

How are you doing this? Would love to do the same to the mk3

Hey guys, how are you doing with this project? Need any more pics?
