So lets use some putty and now it looks -not finished yet - like this:

Hi Micha,
humm for me that part was right...


I am preparing a sending with pics from official C2 testing with Kris Meeke where I've been in 2005.

Hi,

yeah, Phil is right.

I found this photo



but Phil´s is the later and correcter one.

No problem, I build the dash back to kit standard and now have correct photos for reference.

Thanks again, Phil, this helps much !!!!!!!!!!

The lower part of the dashboard is not included because it wasn't there in the real car, i have seen it very close.
kit is available @ www.domino.be (they produced it)
They also have the Kronos version of Bruno Thiry in ERC

Hi, yes, meanwhile I know, rallyemaster sent me some great pics. My reference pic was probably from an older car.

Today I painted the roof white, next week the lower part of the body gets a red colour-treatment

Micha, I'm honestly waiting for progresses on your beautiful 355 but I'm also interested in following this topic. I saw this kit advertised in the Domino website, it seems very fine, doesn't it ?

Ciao: Robi

hey hey,
I've just understand something about this mysterious dashboard...!
on the rollbar it is written PH'sport, and I believe I know where this version is from and why it has such dashboard.
I think this is the previous version used by Sebastien Loeb to open a french rally championship event, the Rally du Var, where the C2 S1600 was seen for the first time.
that could explain why it hasn't the definitive race car dashboard.

bye
Phil

Hi Robi,

I was on holiday the last week, so I couldn´t answer until now:
The C2-kit is from Domino, I think it is produced by Renaissance and it is ok.
The 355 is yellow and red meanwhile and I want to decal it next week.

Hi Micha, I'm looking forward...

Hi,

little update:
body is painted with automotive paint out of the can and decals are on by using lots of Microsol. In some areas I must use some colour.






Progress on the interior

Micha, it looks great.

Looks excellent, is the P/E you are using standard with the kit or aftermarket? I love the ratchet strap on the spare wheel, this is going to be a very cool model

Hi David,

all etched parts I use come with the kit. The only thing I miss are the CF-decals for the rear side of the seats, but that isn´t a bigger problem.

Nice work Micha, I like it a lot.

those PE details are killer!! great job, I'm tuned. Also I love a lot fat S1600s
