RUF CTR Yellowbird in 1/24


Recommended Posts

Well, you have many options. If you wanted to do it as a curbside, you could start with the Tamiya or Fujimi for best results, if you wanted to do a full engine, start with the Fujimi enthusiast kit. The wheels? good luck!! I've been looking for decades for a set of those wheels in scale. I have a hazy memory of someone making a resin set eons ago, but havent seen anything since. Fujimi made a newer set of Ruf wheels that were used on the 964, but they arent even close to the yellowbird wheels.

These 2 sets of wheels from Fujimi which are kind of similar.

These are close but 1 too many spokes

Kinda surprised Scale Production dont do a transkit or wheels, they do heaps of other Porsche stuff. You could maybe do the Cup wheels instead.

Good luck, I hope you build it!
