Porsche 910 Nürburgring 67 'winner - Tamiya 1/12

[M.Boy]

Late last year I bought my first car model in 1 / 12 scale. This is a Porsche 910 Nürburgring 67 'winner - Tamiya 1/12.





This model in 1967-68 had a lot of success at the World Sportscar Championship Manufactures,

I started collecting photos of the Porsche and bought some extras.



Finally could not stand it and began construction in early March.

I started the engine and gearbox.

This is the gearbox and an element which supports the exhaust pipes in real 910



and tamiya







and my work










enclosure gearbox is not made at exactly



and there are no screws connecting the motor with gearbox



So I did it





I decided to add a metal screw











also added a few more special features











this is transmission with the engine block and sport oil filter and starter





oil filter by Tamiya looks like that







and real











I decided to do it more realistic



a few corrections and will be good

The work you are putting in the gearbox and engine is amazing. I like your work very much. Your idea of using threaded nuts and bolts is great, I think I'm going to use your idea because it looks so real. I hardly can't wait on more progress on this build.

Count me in as a fan of this one! That gearbox looks great - really crisp and fresh. Hey, it's a Porsche!

I have never been a fan of this Porsche but this thread is super. this engine/gearbox is being held together with nuts and bolts and not cement.

[rx7king]

That is impressive. Tons of attention to detail, cant wait for whats to come

[Mech@niC]

Man your work is amazing!
I will follow this one for sure

Looking utterly brilliant at the moment! Are you going to use the kit decals? I've got the decals to do the silver Martini scheme which looks great, but I think the original Martini car ran the flat-8. Saw the Gunnar replica at the Le Mans Classic (with the flat-6) - it does look very cool! Also have an older second kit with a broken roof. Been tempted to roof chop it and make it into the Gerhard Mitter 910 Bergspyder! Have a look for it on the internet ...it looks nuts!
