Cheers buddy. Prefer the wheels with the Knock Offs rather than hub caps.  |

Do the Rudge knock-off (wheels with spinners) come in the kit ?....

Cheers buddy. Prefer the wheels with the Knock Offs rather than hub caps. I agree, much more class!!! I figured those other pics in the link might help with the engine and interior too as well as scratching up some matching luggage if you wanted... |

Reading an old article, there is supposedly an aftermarket company doing a set of wheels and knock offs but I don't know who they are or where to find them. On the up side, paint has arrived along with some new, improved clear coat.  |

Pegasus will certainly do something similar for the knock offs but not for the rim itself, I will keep hunting.  |

My Revell Porsche Speedster came with the wheels you need...also check Fujimi Enthusiast 356 kits....the old Revell/Aurora 356 and 904 kits were 1/25 though.
Your kit is a 1/24.

Thanks boys but I will give it a miss, it will cost nearly as much as the kit to get them shipped over here.

I hope so, I really do.
It's not all doom and gloom, I will contact the seller and see if he can ship cheaper, after all, it's hardly the largest parcel.
If he can, I may commit and save them for a race version.

Sorry for the delay but we do have progress. The tubular chassis is all up together and primed awaiting a top coat.  Back soon... |
