I started this project some time ago, and it was sidelined for a bit, but I've pulled it out of the box and resumed some work on it.



I completed wiring of the motor today, and some other small details





This part still needs a couple more hose clamps, two have been installed



The twin turbo piping has been heat stained.

Built that one in university for a friend. Still remember it fondly. Haven't seen the friend in years though... I wonder if the model still exists??

Looks great! I have one of these high on my to build list, so I'll be curious to see how yours comes out. What did you use for ignition wire clamps?

Why do we see so few of these???

The color is by Cobra Colors. It's a factory Porsche color called Basalt Black metallic..
The wire looms are by Detail Master.

Thanks for the awesome comments guys. :) I'm in the middle of painting a 5 color interior now, pics to come soon.

They are Detail master PE hose clamps. Part #DM240.
I still have to add a tiny piece of wire to replicate the worm gear on the clamp. I'll post a pic when that piece is completed.

Here's a small update, I now have the motor in place, and the suspension is completed.

The turbos, piping and exhaust are installed.

All covered up and hidden: :)


Mocked up:


I added some BMF to the wheels and really HATE them now that the body is on it.
So it will come off, and I'll respray the wheels.
