Porsche 936-78 Turbo – first details painted

Tuesday, August 4th, 2009

After the masking and first painting session last weekend this is how the Porsche body currently looks (please not the spoiler is not glued in position yet).

You can see that I didn’t mask too well, since at the body panel lines there are some red markings where they do not belong … I will be able though to remove them by lightly scraping over them with a scalpel. And the body will get some white colour as well. For that I will mask off the read and other painted areas.

Porsche 936-78 Twin Turbo by Aoshima

I started this new car in the meantime. A Aoshima Porsche 936-78 Twin Turbo Kit which was originally motorised. I got this kit for around €5,– at one of our German flea markets and intend to make it into a Slot Car. For this I got myself a “slotvision mach 2″ chassis. More about that chassis in a separate post. The body was cleaned and primed, then sanded, primed again and sanded again to appear in this condition:
