I'm a Ferrari man but I love Porsche's :)

Recently I finish the Porsche 804 Winner of the French GP 1962 with Dan Gurney and now I'm working on the Porsche 911 RSR from Le Mans 1973. Based on the AMR kit with open panes and interior and engine detailed.

I hope you like it,









































Thank you
Ricardo

This is just wonderful. Truly art. I generally build Ferraris, but have a Porsche. May I ask where the engine for this project is from?

Choice subject. One of the better looking Porsche's are the RSR version.

Thank you James, the engine is from Renaissance, is a 935 Turbo so I need to make some changes. But is simply amazing in detail.

I agree Peter, but the Porsches I like more are the 906, 907, 908 from 66 to 69 like this 908 from 69 on 1000 Km Nurburgring,
they are simply amazing on lines and decorations

I like your attention to detail and the results should be well worth it. I would have used cloth seatbelts ;)

Thank you,

Peter in the past I used sometimes seatbelts in cloth but for me the problem is the scale as you can see on this F1 model.


Some pictures from the rims of the headlights,made from a silver road. The covers are in acrilic.
