Porsche 911 Turbo

[mitchell]

quick build since this Tamiya is just a simple curbside snap kit. Tamiya might have the best scaled Porsche 911 but it does have have a few things that need to be dealt with, such as molded in license plate frame, wrong exhaust and seats. Other than that, it is a great kit. Since I am building this car with my friend's car as a reference, I modified the exhaust, scribe in the sunroof and have still have to scratch build a aftermarket steering wheel.

That's nice, Mitchell. Love the colour as well. Is that gunmetal grey?

[Tompidom]

Looks very nice! though the pictures don't do it justice.

[Scalper]

Looking nice.. I want to build every porsche kit ever made.

[Brizio]

Very nice! It bring back memories... I drove for a while a similar one, pure fun.

[Foxer]

Looks very good! Can I ask how your masked the wheels for the black centers?

[PowerPlant]

That's a great color for this car

However, it looks pretty much done... It might be difficult to install the steering wheel at this point, no?

[mitchell]

the paint color is Tamiya Gun Metal, very similar to Porsche's slate grey. It is almost done, just some details needed to finish it up. The steering wheel can be easily install since this is a snap kit base model. Very toy like so easy to take apart.

I see... Thanks for the explanation

modify the steering using the original wheel as the base. Not quite perfect but close enough. So call this one done and will be moving this to Under glass.
