I see the next Hiro 1/12th scale kit will be the Porsche 956.

Although I will not buy one some Porsche people are happy.

I want a Porsche 917K in 1/12th!!

I have the 1/12 Hippie car coming in with the 64 GTO kits. It looks real nice from the photos I have seen.

Yes, the "Hippie" car looks very good, but not for me; I want a good kit of a 917K

I received mine from Hiro this morning and it is amazing. Right off I noticed they put a lip around the engine body opening and boot body opening wich no 64 GTO ever had. Also the tires seem slightly small but still very nice. They did put the Good Year Blue Streaks on the decal sheet and eveything seems to be correct for this warm air induction 64 GTO(LM car #26). I think after assembling the cast wire wheels they look very good. Hiro did not need to make a separate spoke wire wheel set in my opinion. The spokes on the second version are also castvery nicely(very nice castings for both types).
