Porsche 356 1/18 progress. Many pics!

Hello!

I found a old Burago 1/18 diecast model and a broken Diablo allso from burago in a box at my parents.
Should be a cool mix!
This is my first time doing this and I know its not very good job but I like the look of the car!
I didnt buy anything, I made for exampel the cage from woodsticks...
And the guage from a pen and the panels from a butterbox and so on.
Didnt cost me anything
Its just the sanding and painting of the body left, Im thinking silver??
This was realy fun and relaxing, Im getting hooked!!

So what do you all think of my first model so far??







I had to make the wheelhouses wider to fit the 335 tyres...

Nice Outlaw!

I have a couple 1/18 356s...one of them is in pretty sour shape. I think I'll take your example as inspiration!

Looks great! I love the idea of chucking a bottle of NOS into an old Porsche. Were'nt 356s driven by tractor engines?
