After many, many moons, I have finally finished a model (WIP here (http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=898025))
Not much to say.
Body is Tamiya TS-8
Interior is German Grey with Deck Tan
Engine is a combination of Flat Aluminium with some Citadul Mithril Silver and Gold. Cam covers was a 50/50 mix of Taimya Red and Flat Red.
Didn't actually even mean to build this as I was going to scavange the engine to go into the back of a 355 but as I got around to test making some bits for the engine, I got carried away.
Enough of the chat.

As you can see, I didn't fix the bad body to chassis fitment.
At this point, I think I'm going to have to hard glue them together so I took these photos just in case that goes horribly wrong.
Some extra pics with the other finished car (http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbulletin/showthread.php?p=5818525#post5818525)

very nicely done, very clean!
did you 'up' the rear suspension to look this stance?
oh, be careful when you super glue the chassis to the body though, this flaw is the only thing i hate about hase 328 / 348 builds...be very careful now!!!
good luck & congrates in advance!

Really very nice finishing, drunken. Body is superb: if I may say something I would see less gloss in the engine compartment and painted rims, but just to see the difference beetween "great" and superb. Bravo.

Wow, excellent paint job, on both models!
As already said, excellent finish there.
A very small bemol is the position of the rear wheels.
