StokeModels Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 I had been looking for this kit for a while and ended up finding one local to me for a decent price. I had a few different ideas for the build but ended up going with an 'Outlaw' build in the style of Rod Emory's Porsche builds. I made a few 3D printed changes to the kit including the wheels, tires, mirrors, fog lights, seats, steering wheel and engine. The body colour was a custom mix of silver, black, engine grey and a little bit of brown. I made the 3D files for the most of the parts myself but the engine and seats are from blackboxstl. For the interior, I added a textured fabric for carpet, seat belts from Studio 27 and drilled out the gauges to make bezels with aluminum tube and then put clear plastic and gauge decals inside them. Some detail shots: Thanks for looking! Martin. 31 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fat Brian Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 At first I thought those were pics of the real car you were building a model of. That is truly incredible work. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought this kit back in the mid-2000 I've never built it this makes me want to. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobss396 Posted February 24 Share Posted February 24 Outstanding, color me floored. I have always thought that was one of the best looking cars of all time, you nailed it. I used to drive one now and then when I was fixing cars, they handled like slot cars. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
