Re: Porsche 936-78

Re: Porsche 936-78
Great job.
It's really hard to get those old Tamiya 936s to this level of finish and accuracy but the outcome is always worth it  Marek |

Re: Porsche 936-78
Hi
A very good looking Porsche 936 with all the right details. The correct rocket red Martini stripes as far as I can tell. But they look bright like they should! Fine details with the mesh intakes and digged out air intake. Clearly built by an afficionado. But why use the wrong seatbelts then? In those days they used black belts with orange Autoflug patch on the shoulders. They look more boring than the bright red Sabelt I know.  Best regards Flemming |

Re: Porsche 936-78
Very nice 936! I'm beginning one and will use your added detail tips. Two questions, how did you get such a nice result with the old Tamiya decals? Mine look pretty yellowed. I seached for some aftermarket versions but couldn't locate any for the works Martini car.
And, you mention that you replaced the headlights. What did you use? Thanks. |

Re: Porsche 936-78
The decals in this kit were a newer release and were very good quality. The headlights were replaced with reflectors made from plated metal I punched with a solid punch tool which leaves the disk slightly cone shaped. You could look for a product called MV lenses also. I put lenses from my parts box over the reflectors. The door sill panels are black in the picture but I must have used pics from a restored car that showed them in white. You might be able to get decals from Tamiya America in California. Their phone number is 1-800-826-4922
