Honda S800 Racing

Does anybody here have a link or have their own set of reference pics for the Tamiya version of this car. I know it is in the Honda museum but I am looking for some good outside and interior shots if possible. Thanks Mike.

I have this kit and did some research on it IIRC.
However all my ref pics are on my Lap Top which I left in the office - doh!
I'll chjeck on Monday and PM you.
If I don't have any though, will you share yours with me??

Thanks Klutz, let me know what you come up with. Cant seem to find more than one picture of the car that Tamiya represents in their kit. Sure would love if the kit manufacturers supplied some links or a pdf file from thier research.

Yea, it would be SO nice if the manufacturers did supply ref photos.

Hmm... wonder why the don't do that? Somone must have them when thay make the master.
I guess it probably has something to do with copyright on the images

Well you cant just "steal" other peoples work and design you know, not to mention reference would only prove how wrong the actual kit is! research is all the fun.... unless there is none

Nobody I'm sure somebody here must be a Honda buff. I guess what I really want to know is is there really an interior with door panels and window cranks inside this race car? Just seems to me they would completely strip it for weight savings but what does the restored car in the museum look like inside? Thanks for looking and helping (if you can).
Mike.
