You can go to eBay motors and search 944. Some sellers post really good closeup photos. Which part of the car are you having a trouble finding pics?

The engine! almost everythig I can find is just top down under the bonnet views.

It is a sweet kit, isn't it? I'm considering getting a 944 Haynes manual (they can be had cheap on Amazon) in hopes that it would have some decent pics/diagrams.

I would also love to see the original Hasegawa instructions for the kit. The Revell ones just seem so vague- especially the painting guides.

Check out their hardparts diagram pages. The Hayns manual has a lot of photos, but not very many diagrams or illustrations. When it comes to model detailing, I think parts manual comes handy because it shows each components more clearly.

I'm looking for pictures of the chassis and underbody (both painted). There seems to be a difference in what i find in the photos on ebay, and what is on the painting guide. (is the chassis body colored, or black?)

I might have some pictures from when I had mine, I can look around. The chassis is covered with a very thick undercoat. The undercoat itself is an offwhite, but is sprayed over with a dark gray.
