BBR base with lots of tweaks and custom bits. The blue car is a normal steel coupe with period correct details added. The red car is a aluminium SL dressed for some high speed runs...

Magic! :o)

The blue one in particular is magnificent.

Have you deliberately deleted the right door handle from the red car (in the interests of weight saving and aerodynamics), or is it just not visible in the pictures?

Love the Porsche 356, the blue version looks very nice!

Reminds me of the one I used to own.
It was a 1993 Porsche 356 with 60 PS engine.

Very nice Joe...you always choose special subjects. Coincidentally I have two new projects about to start up, both Bosica based. One will be a twin cam and the other based on the recent Speedster. All of this on top of the 917L Gulf cars still under construction.

I have a twin cam in mind but also open to suggestions so it will be the best version that will do the kit justice.

Sorry for the HiJack!!!!

Thanks for all the kind comments!!! Sorry for not replying sooner but my cat chewed the keyboard cable:)

Jono, Good eye on the missing door handle. I was in a hurry to snap a few pics before it got dark:)

Wolfgang, I gussing your 356 was a 63 or 53 and not 93:) Either way I'd love to see some pics if you have any.
