Attached Imagewith a lot of tracking down and finally going to e-bay in Germany I came across a very excelent 914 R/C body. I purchaced it through the german e-bay website and not knowing a bit of german just working the site as I do in the US (the formats the same just german) I was able to purchace. Its totally a great looking car. Its going to be a great companion to my 1972 914. granted its a 6 but what the hell its a 914. I have a 4.. I have contacted the company in germany and waiting to hear back. if any interest I will post what I have found out. I will inclose a photo of the painted model. oh by the way it comes with decals for the lights etc. and they are outstanding.

I bought a couple of extras, just in case. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

I'm contemplating scanning the one I bought for me, building a vacuum table, milling a plug, and making them. I'm not sure what kind of issues I'll run into yet for copying it, though. So I'm still contemplating it.

I pulled a mold from one of the first group buy cars that had better mold lines and details. I'd like to make a few changes too as there are a lot of details miccing that would be easy to replicate. I think a narrow body car would be really nice to. Making it a 200mm shell would open the market up a lot.
