The 944 hadn't been introduced when the 924 GT's were built. The road car was then homologated for competition which led to the GTR & GTS. These had different rear bodywork to the GT & often from other GTR's or S's!

But, it's your model, so you can build it as you want - & the real ones were often individual anyway!

Hi, Keef:

You are absolutelly right. I referred more to have something under the wheel arc, as the Ditech body comes empty:



In the original picture I can see the holes where the big wheel arc will be bolted, so the plate from the base body remains under. That`s what I want to achieve. Itīs more a copy of the "body manufacturing process". And believe me, seeing the Hasegawa part in the final position, looks similar to reference pictures.

Maybe will me wider, but looks so powerfull

Let me time to download more pictures.
