Porsche 911 GT1 Test Mule (Full Carbon !) Progress
Just started this kit today. It's supposed to look like a Porsche GT1 Test car, we will see later if it will look like that
 This will be a very slow built, but I will update as much as possible. Here is the stuff I will use: (closer pictures on my web site.)  First step, removing the driver door. First time I do this. I used Scale Race Car Scriber Blade, which are Photo-Etched blade. They are very great and I was able to remove the door with minimal damage.  As usual, more pictures and info on my web site Comments and suggestions are welcome!

Re: Porsche 911 GT1 Test Mule (Full Carbon !) Progress
A little bit of scratch building. That was a long process, but it's close to good. Still have some sanding to do.
  Quite close euh ? Back to sanding..

Re: Porsche 911 GT1 Test Mule (Full Carbon !) Progress
Nice subject, ill keep an eye on this one. Door is looking good as well! Will it be hinged or fixed in the open position? Keep it up...

Hope to be hinged, but I'm still looking for a solution to make something realistic.
