Hi Alex. I may dig the images out and re-upload if I can find them... this had a fairly rudimentary 8880-esque body made with black studded beams. My Porsche 356 used the same chassis: http://www.mocpages.com/moc.php/275626

I was reading your review at brickset, and I saw this link so I clicked on it! But none of the images are there! =O Is there something you can do? No rating as I can't see the MOC.

The images are missing

Great MOC and great set. It was actually my second set after the yellow forklift. I build this one 100 times and made my own mocs back then with this chassis. I think I will rebuild a few to place them here as well. The 853 I bought in 2009so wasn't aware of the flaws of this one till then. I very like the 2 extra seats.

Excellent mods. This is one of my favourite sets, I must of made it 100 times as a kid. Built it a few months ago for old times sake. Thanks for commenting on my cobra, I will try out some bigger steering wheels.

Excellent! As my brother says, Lego could have made it! One thing that makes it look less " official model like " is that it has plates on the body, and the n8880 doesnt. But it wasn't meant to be a set that Lego could hev made! I love the original, and Love your one even more!

I love it ! You create a lot of great models, compliments ! You can create a X-1/9 Bertone ? I'm in love with that car

Nice improvements.

Very nice model - looks authentic; something they could have made. I like the old style and agree about the rigidity - looks and moving bits are nice, but not at the expense of the model falling apart in the process. Nice convertible roof system, too - the car looks good both with and without the roof. - Dan

A classic indead! very well built! Why dont you make a Citroen Mehari http://www.exoticcarhireworld.com/images/rentacarclassic%20citroen%20mehari%20200907_5017.jpg That would be great!

I bought the complete Miami Vice box a week ago to keep my 80s spirit awake for inspiration. Now I see that a lot of people keep their 80s spirit alive and that's wonderful. Nice bodywork for the 8860, very great looking.

Excellent - this looks like a very good MOC from the 80s! Really like it - here's to the old-school revival!

It's good to see that this set (the best I had as a kid) still finds favour these days. Well done on the modernisation and the body! The trunk/engine lid opens OK, just like an SLK.

Ehhh... I wish I had that many those big wheels.

This is great. You've proven how much potential these old Technic sets have (again). The improvements and the bodywork are great. I didn't even expect an convertible roof.

Sweet. But you've made the original set you love look feeble. Ironic.
