Dann Tier Posted December 11, 2020 Author Share Posted December 11, 2020 (edited) I have another update for this one as well! Edited December 11, 2020 by Dann Tier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete75 Posted December 11, 2020 Share Posted December 11, 2020 Cool - glad you're back at it Dann! Nice wheels: what are they and are they a straight swap, fitting-wise, for the Fuchs ones in the kit? (Porsches seem to have such a big front/rear width difference!) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks again, Bud!, yes they are, and i didnt even have to adjust the ride height at all either! After some detail painting, i will have another update!

It's mega rare. It was based on a Fujimi enthusiast series Porsche. But this was a one time issue only deal and all the Gambella parts were exclusive to Revell. I have one that I found recently after 20 years of looking for one!! No joke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hawk5.0 Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 I love it Dann. That is one bitchin Porsche.. I like your take on the LED headlights. I think I would have not split the rear lights though.. I have always liked the classic style on the rear end of these cars and just kinda throws me off. But, other than that your fabrication on this is fabulous.

Since this build is about updating/new technologies, i decided to adapt the newer style lights, but with my twist of having the separation blended in body kolor.

beeRS Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 I don’t know how this thread passed me by. Great work Dann. I love the imagination and creativity you bring to your builds. I remember seeing that Revell Gambella kit for sale in a local toy shop when I was a kid. I think it was about £8 - £9. At the time, I thought, who’s gonna pay that kind of money for a model.

I turned the fog lights into brake ducts. -Photo 2; I opened the fender vents....gotta love PE saws!! -Photo 3; I replaced the scalloped side vent with the "Shark Fin"...only mine is a functional vent -not a chip guard. WOW!!! Another home run! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
