My latest casting project is done ! Based on a junk resincast Faller body that I was just gonna cast glass for,It evolved into a full bown casting project incorperating my resincast Dune buggy motor & TYCO Hood scoop.Only problem Is defective window in rear (Crack shows)but I may cast a new glass with rear sunshade slats.Other wise I just cover it with decals.This one is painted in Testors flat red with slotrod65.com decals.

Go no rear window and small louver it up like the hard top Spyders of old! Ya gotta hand it to Faller on the 356. They were proportionally pleasing to the eye...their 911?...well maybe not so much!

Lessee the underside, mounts and chassis Neal...please?

Basicly its an AW chassis with 3R wheels.The screw posts are cast into the body.
BTW, if you look closely on the Faller 356 the rear hood is slightly angled to the right.
