Thumbs up EWA has a 1/43rd scale 944S2 cab available.

For those of you looking for 944 toys, I found that EWA has the Minichamps 1/43 scale 944S2 Cab in stock.

(Fishey, this looks like your cab).

They also have a 968Cab there too....

Just thought I'd share, as there have been a few inquiries about these lately...

Tifo... I bought the model when someone posted it earlier (about a month ago)...

Its really good quality but there is a flaw on the 944 underbody (Its like the coupe instead of the cab on the model) Other then it being the Euro version its all good

They have a guy who works there on Saturdays, he'll custom paint the car for a fee-I had my model done in Speed Yellow-the spray paint they have was a decent match. It was $25 plus the paint can.

1. I saw an exact car like that today.

2. Fishey, do you have any photos of the underbody of the cab? I wanna see what your talking about with paneling that goes all the way back.

Thanks for the tip. I recently bought an S2 Cabrio and it will make a good addition to my small a collection of scale cars, a 914, a bug, a microbus and a 1951 GMC Panel Truck.

The 914 is from a company called GAMA and I bought the model 15 years ago when I bought a real 914. The 914 model is not a very good replica though because it should be all rusted out!
