Marco F. Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 Hello Keith, As usual I started reading and was shocked...but when I came to pics I recovered directory. You went a road of horror to finish the model and you won. You are my hero. The 911 looks great and the dechroming suits it perfectly as the shiny paintjob is also doing. Congratulations Marco F 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keefr22 Posted May 18, 2022 Author Share Posted May 18, 2022 Thank you Marco I really appreciate your comments and am so glad you like the model - once again it wouldn't have happened without you so kindly sending me those wheels, so thanks again Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnlambert Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 I think you're being too hard on yourself, either that or you posted pictures of another model. The finish looks pretty good. Well done for sticking with it, but you have definitely made me nervous of tackling an early style Porsche 911. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neddy Posted May 18, 2022 Share Posted May 18, 2022 I've only ever built one Fujimi kit, the Miura illustrated in my avatar, and I have to confess I was distinctly unimpressed by the quality of the design and fit of the parts. I wouldn't attempt another one on that showing. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drat, never thought of that, perhaps I should have used this one! Mentioned this one before - it's another Fujimi 911S kit I built for a charity auction on a full size Porsche forum, the main lot being the full size car! I was chuffed mine made nearly £400 for Macmillan - the real one went for a bit more! Thing is, as far as I remember I had no problems at all with the build. One thing I would say to anyone thinking of building one is - don't cut the front hood off!! Keith 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevehnz Posted May 19, 2022 Share Posted May 19, 2022 It looks good on my fone, even when I tip it sideways. I'd call that a result. Maybe not what you wanted but nice to see an early 911. 👍 Steve. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

K I will try not to be late again honest!!! It looks good it's got a reality to it too. I suppose your view may be tainted due to the issues you suffered with the kits , I think despite your fight with it you can be proud of what you turned out.
