Exclamation Porsche 917

Hi all! I have begun new porsche. This time it Porsche 917 (Fujimi).







What I did so far:
New frame






Has made of plastic of a partition


The holder for the accumulator and other new self-made parts






Has inserted a grid and has made new instrument panel






Has altered the fire extinguisher




Cockpit after painting and assembly. Seat belts from a kit Ferrari 330 P4 Le Mans (Fujimi).



Seat black instead of red because I eventually have decided to build the version porsche 917 Sebring.

Thanks for attention

Re: Porsche 917

Awesome, I have built one of these and your interior is ... superior. If the rest is that good this will turn into an awesome model...

Re: Porsche 917

Can you post the pattern you used on the partition for the wheel well/door area? Looks great overall.

Re: Porsche 917

Are you using the HRM engine kit? I'm building Fujimi's Daytona #2 car, and want to use the big fuel tank, but it interferes with the tub. Any suggestions?

BTW, I had to buy an extra Fujimi kit, so when I'm done, I'll be parting out some or all of the spares to anyone who needs them. (If you're cutting out the right door, the filler cap opening will need to be reinforced with a brass strip shaped to fit the opening.)
