Talking Progress: 350Z Roadster

Hi everyone!

Its been a while since ive posted, here is my new project,
after seeing pictures of the real thing, I fell in love. So here
is my attempt to make a scale model of one. I kno its not 100%
accurate. Tell me what u guys think so far? Still alot of sanding to do...

Wondered when someone would give this a try. It's crossed my mind - would be great to make resin bodies for conversions.

Should look good when done

woooo, thanks alot man! I love this car, but i dont think i'll be able to make it 100% exact, as I am using the rear pods from a ferrari f50

maybe on the next one? any suggestions on how to make the roll bar things look exactly like that??

here is the Idea I had for a couple of month now... didn't had the money to get an other 350Z...

you have a lot of pressure you need to make this one outstanding just like my Subaru convertible..

you are on the good way !
