mrm Posted May 8, 2014 Posted May 8, 2014 With the exception of the aluminum tubing used for the exhaust, this is build box stock from the Fujimi kit. Fitting the glass was a pain and making the interior sit properly under it an even bigger one. Making the rear wheels sit properly in the fenders is not possible without modification. Over all I enjoyed making this wild shark. Color is Ferrari spec Rosso Fuocco by PPG.
Kennyboy Posted May 8, 2014 Posted May 8, 2014 WOW! That looks beautiful!! I know what you mean about the rear wheels.......they used the same wheels as the Koenig Biturbo 911 = HUGE wide. That color is just gorgeous!!
Porscheman Posted May 8, 2014 Posted May 8, 2014 As a owner of a 1 to 1 928, you did a fantastic build!!!
mrm Posted May 8, 2014 Author Posted May 8, 2014 Thank you everyone. This paint came out a lot better the second time around. My wife said she wants me to paint her nails this color. Not a good idea in my opinion.
Danno Posted May 9, 2014 Posted May 9, 2014 OMG that's beautiful!!! Spectacular color. And, thanks for the glimpse of the valley. Nice to see again.
Roncla Posted May 10, 2014 Posted May 10, 2014 Super paint job on a car we rarely see on this forum. Well done
mrm Posted May 10, 2014 Author Posted May 10, 2014 Thank you all for the kind words. I want to build the 911 Koenig now, but i need to get one first. My kid Ryan really wants to go to a contest and enter the father/son Boothill Express we made and to try the junior class with his Beatnik Bandit II. So, there is a very good chance we may pay the Heartland Nationals a visit next month. If it happens, anyone attending can check this model and few others I will probably have complete by then. And if I get lucky, I can come home with the other three Koenigs I need.
Nacho Z Posted May 10, 2014 Posted May 10, 2014 WOW!! You're going to have to put a paper towel underneath that thing to catch that wet paint!
slusher Posted May 10, 2014 Posted May 10, 2014 Man, that is impressive. Paint looks amazing. You do some good work Michael..
The70judgeman Posted May 10, 2014 Posted May 10, 2014 Love the 928's. And the paint is like liquid....beautiful.
peekay Posted May 10, 2014 Posted May 10, 2014 Beautiful job on an unusual subject, and I agree with the others - fantastic paint.
hjracing Posted May 10, 2014 Posted May 10, 2014 Awesome build! The wheels are the kit ones? The paint job is trully amaizing!
