It is 1/24 scale, and I included a ruler(inches) in the engine shot for an Idea of scale.

Thanks for all the compliments!

Hi Kevin!

I do love that model! Your attention to exterior detail is rivaled only by my obsession with the interior

http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbul...threadid=93644

Like you said...your body + my interior = perfect 356!

At the rate I'm going though, my car won't be done until August!

Sean

Oh, PS: Your engine, is sick! SICK! Did you have trouble mounting it in the bay when you were finished? I followed the instructions, but clearance is tight in there. Any tips?

It's gorgeous. Just a lovely buildup! I feel like I could turn the key and drive it away.

Great model!
I have one to build too, but mine will be probably red.

Words have left me!

BTW, is the engine wiring part of the kit or is that an extra you threw in?

Again, thank you for all the compliments. They mean alot more coming from my peers!

Jastor/Sean; Nope, nothing difficult with the engine installation, other than I didn't attach it to the tranny. didn't need to the fit was so tight.

Only problem with putting the engine in the car is at shows I have to remind the judges to look "in the back" for the engine.

I said it b4 and I'll say it again; Your interior is PERFECT.

With the exception of one book I bought, everything else I got from being really good with Google.

Also, as I said, the Fujimi Enthusiast series is dead nuts accurate on the various styles of body and even engine differences. I just wish almost all the 356 subjects weren't the very rare(IRL) Carrera engine.
