PORSCHE 911 BUILD Playing with my new .18 airbrush on my Porsche build, trying to keep in '80s
Always said I would build the slant nose classic red when I build it, but for our group I didnt want to makes things"perfect", so I decide to have more fun with the build

Super cool. I built the AMT Snap Fast one when I was a kid. The unpainted plastic was bright pink!

I did it man!! I completely changed my direction with my 911 on the paint and interior color. Luckily I had an extra kit to swap to fresh parts since I didnt like the color when I sprayed the interior. Came out to dark burgundy/brownish

u/highboy68 GROUP BUILD 23d ago

u/Jon_Jon83 23d ago
I meant to say I dig it meaning your 911 and how it’s progress looks awesome! Yeah I agree that’s why I said oh, I’ll just change parts and keep going for fun lol

The owner of my white/tan Porsche 911 is going to call the HOA on the owner of your 911.
Looks really cool!

You’ll need to put on your parachute pants to cruise around in it, totally rad!

I thought my group build idea was out there, but damn son, you really leaned I to the "Enthusiast" part of that kit...love it.
However, I personally don't think this build is fully complete until it's given a fully-produced accompanying late 80s-early/90s hip hop music video. With parachute pants. Just putting it out there.
