Perspective Customs Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Interesting. Found this on the internets: "characteristic dimensions: outside length: 5674 mm / 223.4 in, wheelbase: 3099 mm / 122 in"223.4 in works out to 9.31 inches in 1/24 scale and 8.94 inches in 1/25 scale.122 in would be 5.08 inches 1/24 and 4.88 inches 1/25.

Perspective Customs Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Glad I could help. & believe me, I don't know this stuff off the top of my head. There are a few sites where you can convert 1:1 dimensions to scale. Google is a great invention. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charlie8575 Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Another way to convert the dimensions.Take the length in inches and divide it by 24 or 25.Example:223.4/25= 8.936" Charlie Larkin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
