3men2s Posted June 21, 2012 Posted June 21, 2012 (edited) This is a project I had in my head for a while and after looking at this photos I decided to give it a try this is what I want to get at. This is what I did, I had an old 935 Tamiya body laying around. With hard massaging I think this will work. The kit I am working on is the Revell Germany 78 Carrera. It come with engine detail, The interor needs work, but I will replace the seats and with a scratch build cage it can be a decent ride. Edited June 21, 2012 by 3men2s
Ace-Garageguy Posted June 21, 2012 Posted June 21, 2012 Yeah, that will be a cool one. Kinda my idea of a daily driver.

LAone Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 thats some insane body work. keep it going man, theres a lot of potential.
deadcylinder Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 Quite an undertaking! I'll be sure to stop by and check this one out! Sawwwweeeet!
3men2s Posted July 12, 2012 Author Posted July 12, 2012 all finished with the boby work,...now is ready for the first coat of white paint. also started to do some work on the interior. basic stuff like getting rid of the back seat and had to add panels because with the new quater panes I installed you could see thru that big gap, the inside of the car. Will make a roll cage and use modern racing seats. also started to put together the engine. will modify a few things like taking out the stock intake and making it look like a aspirated racing engine. will trash thohe tiny pipes with hand made headers. here a few pics of my progress and pics of ideas for this project. ideas
Brizio Posted July 12, 2012 Posted July 12, 2012 Nice, those wheels are beautiful! Remind of a '88 I drove years ago.
