TedsModeling Posted April 12, 2013 Share Posted April 12, 2013 What's the body from, Dave? It looks like hinges on the inside and out, but the doors don't appear to be cut out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
comp1839 Posted April 12, 2013 Author Share Posted April 12, 2013 i don't know where the body's from, ted. it was a gift from another modeller who wanted to help out. i didn't get a complete kit so i have no idea. the doors were molded with a very thin amount of plastic holding them in place to the body. same with the trunk lid. you can very easily open the doors up to make them work. this car will not have operating doors. if you look at the chassis, opening doors would be useless anyway.
