I just got done with my Jay Halsey edition a few weeks ago and not only was the body bagged up like the one in this video was. But also the wing and the driver was also stuffed in the same bag as the body. I noticed the driver and wing on this one was left out.

Are the wheels 12 mm hex??

Man I still haven’t built my Mercedes C11 kit since its release! Now I got to go and order this one as well! 😂

That's beautiful! Great job with the paint and body work. It's funny. I'm looking at where you filmed at the train station and I said to myself looks like Long Island. Then I saw the sign for the highway.

I just noticed the racers names decals.the top name is Jackie Ickx , i think he was Belgian and I remember him particularly because he raced and shared a car at Bathurst in NSW Australia with Allan Moffat a Canadian who had moved to Australia in the 1960's and was spectacularly famous for his touring car racing victories driving Ford Falcon GT and GTHO .very nice work on this Porsche. 👍👌

This is spectacularly beautiful stunning. Does this kit have the Rothmans tobacco livery? In Australia we have a ban on tobacco advertising so I'm pretty sure we can't get the Rothmans decals. Very nice 👌👍♥️

great model, super work

"...I can smell the Tamiya rubber right thru the plastic..." lol!

Great vid, great footage.

It looks great. Good job. Mine's on hold as it's too cold to paint outside where I live now.

I know that area.... great place to drive... I used to live just North of there.

My LHS sold like 3 of these as they were were being offloaded off the delivery truck.

The good modeller is the one who knows how to hide mistakes my friend! Good Job! i hope tamiya releases the same chasis but with Mazda 787B body.

Came out great.

So an cool car! Where do you buy the redbull stickers? I wount bild the same. Thanks for your answer, best regards from switzerland

Wow, what an absolutely stunning looking car, you've done a fantastic job! I have a real soft spot for the early to mid 1980's Group C racing cars, they were the best looking racing cars ever made, in my opinion. Awesome stuff!!

Did you know that Tamiya also made a small Tamtech version of this car? Also, Kyosho made a 1/12 scale version of this car with a pre-painted body and also a clear body. Both of those cars are no longer made. Thoughts?

Nice car but man your music just blows. These came out in the 80s. Use music from the era

Race it next year on the fenderbender Race way your super fan 😂.

Running @ 8:20... music instead of drivetrain/tire sounds

same old chassis and a new 956 body should have been done 30 years ago

Great job on the body, i agree with the yellow window sticker 👌 it defo looks better with the rothmans lettering aswell

Finally catching up with vids, and OMG, this looked like an awsome day, esp the monster beetles 👌 love the running Vids Ari.

The car looks great! Thanks for sharing.

<3 :) hahaha if you dearest Ari are apologizing for that little "spray over" I will never dare to try to paint a lexan body again haha :) your 956 turned out absolutely gorgeous <3 what an amazing job Ari :) !!!

I drive this car on Forza Motorsports. It’s phenomenal!

Wonderful build and paint 👍 And looks even nicer once in motion 😎 Well done 🤝

I have a great tip for you Ari. If you ever have that happen again, you can cut back the white and the overspray paint area with Tamiya Polycarbonate cleaner using an earbud. After you remove the overspray, you then blow it back in and you can't see it anymore. I've done it a few times myself and it's saved a few paint jobs along the way. It's a right pain I know, as you don't see the overspray until you put down the lighter colour. Great video :)

What a beautiful model👍

That’s the most sole destroying feeling. Peeling back the protective film and finding overspray. Turned out great. The decals have changed from original so adding a few extra doesn’t do any harm. It looks factory that’s the main thing. I’d always use symmetry when adding any decals if possible 👍

Had to hit mute, that music was awful.

Lol, stickers are my go-to if i mess up something on the paint. 😂😂😂🤷🤦‍♂️

Look mint bro 🔥

I am in the same boat, the chassis was super fun and quick and the body slowed me down a lot and I have not felt like cutting out the decals and getting them on there yet! I really need to and it will probably be a Thanksgiving day thing for me. I agree that the sticker make great oops fixes and like you said, unless you know they look like they are supposed to be there! As far as changing the livery to suit what you like, go for it! I couldn't tell one from another so whatever combo looks the best it the way you should do it!

Pour-Sha

It's been a long time since I've seen a 1/10th pan car chassis in a kit. Beautiful looking result there Ari, well done sir.

Beautiful job on the build. Body looks fantastic.

Unreal, looks awesome, cheers from this Aussie in China!

Can you tell us which color the blue Body color is? Ral? Tamiya?

Use Hair Dryer to heat up stickers after application. Heat them up and press with finger or soft cloth. They will be almost like melted to chassis. Tamiya stickers are perfect to use this method.

I wish I could buy all these cars, that came out awesome and I just love it!! Nice work.

Great result, sometimes it really works being creative with decals!

Long time Tamiya Lover and kit builder, with MANY kits! l think you did an excellent job! I'm in the process of starting the same body, and THANK YOU for the tips and warnings! My first RC car, Porsche 959 in 1989......"Shelf Queen" after realizing what l had! Thanks for your video!😊👍

Tamiya, why didn't you make the front and rear wheels match?

Cool car, but this music sucks.

You: So there's this microscopic bit of overspray, let me zoom in a billion so you can possibly see it Me: gimme that running video of this bad boy! 😆

I try to finish the body before I build the chassis to avoid being burnt out on the build. Love this kit but Tamiya needs to stop screwing around and rerelease the 959 already. Looks great!

Nice job, mate!

It looks great. Your car, do it your way. Kick the tires and light the fires.

That car came out beautiful and looks great running. Good job Ari
