Porsche 356 B/C

Poor fit of glass to body due to warping. 

Trying some washes to pop the seats a bit. 

I prefer to spray on the trees as a good kit will have the sprue attachment on the tabs used in assembly... which didn't really apply to such a really old kit 🙁 

Before I remembered that the inside was red! 

Note for anyone trying to build this kit! 

Alignment was everything, shame I couldn't figure it out in advance 

This looked great - until I looked at the pic! It was touched up but honestly, you can't see it when assembled! 

Almost there 

Side mirrors had sink holes in them. 

Engine was pretty detailed. 

I managed to swap l/r on this so I had some dis-assembly to do. 

Notes 

Notes 

Filled, painted chrome, then used a chrome pen. They turned out so so. 

Looked like a real car getting a real paint job! 

Underside becoming all black 

Polished the Mission Models with these wipes that I also use to clean the glass (reduces dust as it eliminates static). 

After polishing 

First attempt at the bumpers 

Bumpers were hard, I failed 

The headlamps were in 3 pieces, with 2 clear. Tamiya tape and cockpit glue to to the rescue. 

Final assembly 

On display at my dad's house.
