Romik makes some great resin kits, nice score Kurt. http://modellingmaster.com/porsche-959-paris-dakar-86/ I finally tracked down a BMW R80 kit.

Very nice Andy.

Still have to apply BMF around the window frames but here is finished paint. I sanded the paint back to give it a sun beaten finish with a few subtle thin spots.

Great project Scott.

Turned out great Niko.

You should go for it, would be a good project.

Looks like a Ray-Dot mirror. There was an aftermarket company, who's name escapes me that offered them in white metal. I used them on this build.

Newman's car was a 280Z which has slightly different body lines from the 240Z.

Nice work William.

Thanks for the comments Bill and for checking in.

Thanks Curt. I applied another coat of paint and just letting it cure. Thanks for the pictures Alan. I added a resin tach to the dash (from Scenes Unlimited) and painted the rear bumper similar to your photos.

I haven't pulled out the Fujimi engine for comparison yet. If I take it on I want to use the side draft Webers.

Appreciate the suggestion Andy, but I'm happy with my choice.

For those that may care:AC Cars chassis number legend: AE – AC engine BE – Bristol engine RS – Ford engine (Rudd Speed) X – Export (left hand drive) CS – Carroll Shelby Therefore the car I am building BEX1110, would be Bristol powered, left hand drive, chassis number 1110.

Appreciate the offer Dann. If I get into trouble I'll let you know.

Settled on the '61 Le Man class winner BEX1110 as the car I wish to build.

Very nice Robert.

These cars are referred to as "LeMan Replicas". They are original Cobras built to the same spec as those that competed in the '63 24-hour. Two distinctive identifiers are the oversized fender vents and the shortened trunk lid hinged the opposite way. The black #97 was the only time the hardtop was used in competition by Shelby in the USA.

Great cars and pictures, thanks for sharing them.

Impressive work thus far.

I like it.

I understand there is a Super Snake trans-kit for the Revellogram 427 in development - stay tuned.

Thanks guys. Color is close to "Aquamarine" .

Impressive.
