Hi all more work on this, it's nice to see the engine in the car instead of on the stand.

Jeez, this is a quick rebuild Ken, most restoration projects take months or even years! Though I suppose if you scale the time down to the same as the model car it could be quite close?!

Looking nice, keep it coming. Cool

Made a start on cleaning up the body panels, gave it a coat of primer to see how bad it looked. Quite pleased, yes it still needs some work but a good start.

Certainly better than this.

It's porsche blutorange (blood orange)

Those body panels smoothed out very nicely Ken considering what you started with. A nice bit of prep work that will pay dividends when you put a top coat over that primer! ThumpUp

Well done Ken.

Looking good Ken, that's a very nice red you have there which suits the car very much. Cool

Hello Ken.
Difficult to tell from the pics but is it a bright red, or orange?

Looks good though. BigGrin

OK so it's nearing the end now,

I suddenly realised I have it being sponsored by Dunlop and Goodyear.

Easy fix
