I have never had good luck with a multi piece body but I believe you can do it !

You think? ?  I would consider adding spacers to make it wider, depending on the chassis of another kit.  Anyone who has done a DTM car have any suggestions?

I remember a local doctor wanted a Mercedes 190 SL but Studebaker was doing the US distribution for Mercedes and he had to buy a Studebaker along with it.  Actually they made a nice pair.

Your latest inspirational picture looks killer too! Those things are bada$$. Nice to see this thread pop up again. I think your idea to go wider with the body sounds good, also will provide more room for the wide rubber.

cheers, Steve
