I don't know for sure, but I think Rennaissance does a Ferrari Challenge transkit.

Have a look on www.italianhorses.net I think Alex has built one.

Museum Collection makes the transkit, the kit includes wheels and decals
HLJ carries them.

Too bad there used to be a link to the finished kit on HLJ but the link is dead now.

The Challenge Stradale is new, nobody makes a kit or detail kit of it (yet). It is different than the 360 Challenge. The front end, side skirts, and decklid are all different.

I wish Tamiya would step up and do this one :rolleyes: :biggrin:

Not to be real picky or anything Ray, Alex built a 360GT-the Challenge is the lesser version of the GT...

Chuck, I see you are still trying to be your usual smart-ass self.....
You are familiar with the concept of kit conversion, even using a transkit close to what you want can help you obtain the car you want to represent......ironically, parts can be modified :eek:

On a side note, there is a big difference between saying 'I am certain' and saying 'I think' isn't there?

Definetely, since they already have such an interresting 360 kit why not push it to the limit and make a GT or a stradale (which btw, I never saw, so pictures will be welcome to understand WHAT'S A STRADALE??).

At first glance the conversion looks easy...
Just a set of wheels and some detail differences, but almost everything on the car is a little different. I've seen all the pix on the Ferrari site and I still have a lot of un-answered questions.

I think that is a Ren trans kit... Looks like it would supply wheels/tires window parts and a digital dash.

I do wish Tamiya would do this one!

:tongue:

You can purchase the transkits from Renaissance at http://www.scaleracecars.com
They make several kits in two flavors. The first has a replacement bumper, etc... The second has an entire replacement body.

Let me clear up some things:
There are several transkits available on the market for Tamiya 360 kit:
Museum Collection makes "Challenge" transkit which includes only wheels and some stupid decals.
Acustion makes a nice PE set for the Challenge
Renaissance transkits (2 kinds, as mentioned before) one is for the regular 360GT that run at Spa in 2001 by JMB racing, and the other one (several versions) for the LeMans entry, its the one with the wide body (resin cast part). None of these kits will represent Challenge Stradale - its is much easier to modify Tamiya kit and get some aftermarket wheels.
