unclescott58 Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Here is Entex’s 1/8th scale Ford 707 gas turbine truck engine. The kit is almost 50 years old. I purchased it on eBay about two years ago. I just finished building it this morning (8/27/2021). It does not run. And rubber belts to run the accessories broke into little pieces when touched. But still, I’m pretty happy overall with the way it turned out. And I’m happy to have the kit in my collection. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oldcarfan27 Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 That's different. I've never even heard of this kit before. Learn something new every day! Now, I'd like to find one. Add it to my Visible V8 and Visible Rotary engines. Too Cool! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pjekoo Posted September 11 Share Posted September 11 Hi everyone, I just finished building this model also, and added all the wiring and hose details. There are some serious flaws that I had to correct. First is the cracked nylon pinion gear on the motor. I was able to have some made in brass. If you need this gear, please contact me.
