I was looking through my parts box and I found parts for a Porsche 911 I think. Its was originally blue and only a couple parts are missing. mostly the front and rear lenses. I took it apart and im going to redo the paint and make a custom dual exhaust. For a color im thinking about a Metallic Blue Sapphire and i'm not sure on the rims. They're the cheap ones with plastic axles through the chassis.
Just a quick side shot.

Not much of an update. I've painted alot of things and the body is still waiting for a clear coat. The exhaust was scraped and just a metal tip added for looks. Added a fire extinguisher and a Tach. I'll get outside pics up after school. Then you can see the difference.

This is about as far as its going to get done until i get some money for some rims. Added Tach, Fire Extinguisher, and a metal tip. I think it's an improvement over the original, being it was baby blue inside and out. Judge for yourself. Sorry if pics are a little blurry. Thanks for looking, comments welcome.

I found a set of Toyota Supra rims for the Porsche. I had to redo the rear tub and rear axles to make the fat rears fit. Heres a couple pics and i added a system in it too.

WOW!! Thats awesome. How do you just take apart a model, and redo it? I tried taking the wing off my model, and it snapped hehe! The Supra rims look the goods.
