Had finally put everything together. Everything went well exept the fitting of body to the chassis plate witch only could be done by bending out the body ( at break limit !!!) and force the chassis in it. Some touch up is left. I´m not so satisfied with the result , but I will be. Enjoy! http://files.automotiveforums.com/uploads/2524409591.JPG http://files.automotiveforums.com/uploads/352703959sidewdiscs.JPG http://files.automotiveforums.com/uploads/795177959clrearwheel.JPG http://files.automotiveforums.com/uploads/811199959rear.JPG http://files.automotiveforums.com/uploads/445526959clrear.JPG http://files.automotiveforums.com/uploads/869358959enghembl.JPG http://files.automotiveforums.com/uploads/900939959enginebay1.JPG http://files.automotiveforums.com/uploads/734753959enginebay2.JPG

You did a great job! In my opinion, this isn't one of Tamiya's better kits as far as the way it fits together. :smile:

This all origional is worth over $400,000.

Agreed, great job on this kit. Tamiya full detail kits aren't always the easiest to assemble. But the finished product is always worth the effort.:cool:

I also have one in my pile but I think it will be a later project and your's will definately be a very good guide...You did a great work on a really great car...
P.S:To be honest as a porsche lover the 959 should be silver(and 911's black)but your's look so awesome...that I can't comment on the color...:):):)
Once again great work....

Funny, Course Yellow was the color I did before I decided to stripped the paint of. The body looks so toyish to me. Maybe you can make a better try!
