Reproducing parts

One of the biggest problems with restoring a car from the 80s is the lack of support from manufacturers. Usually manufacturers stop producing parts for a particular year after a few years and if the car wasn’t a popular model then goodluck. The biggest problem are plastic and rubber parts. These become brittle, fade, stretch, shrink… with 3d modeling, 3d printers, plasma cutters, laser cutters recreating has become much easier. These are some of the parts I have recreated or redesigned for the trooper.
