'88 Porsche 911 Turbo

[Belugawrx]

Bought this quite awhile ago, Tamiya kit,..sort of snap together,.. no engine.

I've always loved the lines of this car,

 I now have another Tamiya, and a couple older Fujimi's

I had it entered into a group build at another site and got this far,..

As you can see, I dropped it ...I mean Dropped it,..

I looked at it and didn't want to waste those rims on that snap together,..

So...

Undersides not bad,..alittle paint and a wash,...

Thanks for looking in

Q, C + C's welcome

Cheers to a happy holiday and lots of bench time

Bill Yea I think it looks better down there, and the wheel tire combo comes back into scale,..

Merry Christmas everyone!

Cheers.

Very nice, you can't beat the classic black on a 911

The 1980's 911 turbos are still the best looking of the 911's  IMHO. You have done a great job on this build.

I agree with Tony and Geoff!!  -no better wheels for that than what you put on it. Very nice work!!!!

The stance is awesome!!!!

Like to hear how you went about dropping her so nicely and at what build stage do you lower....ie early on or near the end

Thanks everyone 

Scott, I do all of the changes ie: stance, at the beginning, before any primer or paint or assembly.

Dry fit, Dry fit, Dry fit is the key.

This lowering was fairly easy, with metal axles you only need to enlarge the openings through the chassis to allow the axles to slide up.
