Hi Woodsy!
I started the restoration of A LT-10 Lunar Transporter from Pippin Spacex II.
My first one was missing the front ring and rear engine exhaust. I just picked a complete one, and borrowed the needed parts to make rubber molds. From them I will cast new replacement parts. See pictures....
Photos of completed parts will follow soon.
I also am restoring a Pippin Spacex moon buggy with new wheels. Photos coming also.
I might make a second half ( two part mold) of engine exhaust on right.
I cast the LT-10 front ring. Here is the first one molded and unpainted against the original. Still making the two part mold for the tail exhaust . Tooth picks sticking in there will be air holes. Center white tube will be path to pour resin in later. Now waiting for this rubber to cure.
The LT-10 repro ring painted with original.
Two part mold for LT-10 engine exhaust ready to cast parts.
LT-10 Transporter parts are done except for chrome painting, and attaching permanently. See pictures.
SpaceX Moon Buggy parts recast is next up.
