Hi my friend: must be cool but must be someone other to do it for sale , I found cool suck money with my job and spend all on modeling, found also that is quite tedious have income trough models but more it is not enough.... much work/small incom in the modeling world... I ever loved minimum afford/maximum $$$ , selling ideas is sometime possible, selling resin or PE not....

Sweet, first time ive seen someone do the trim from scratch. I need to do this to a 1/24, hopefully it can turn out like yours. Thanks for sharing and good luck!

WTG this going to be a fun "slice & splice" massacre to follow!

I wonder if I will live to see one of them finished....?

Hi Gio,

Waow incredible Porsche multi-projects !!
I love it !

I also recently decided to convert one of my 911 Turbo into the wonderfull SC RS (what a sound !! ) Group B.
It seems that you miss (or still haven't done it) that the rear wing doesn't only need to be corrected in its wight and edges shape but also has to get his "inside space" reduced. I mean that the rear edge of it is design to receive the intercooler whereas the SC RS is an atmo engine and rear wing isn't enlarge to the rear to get the intercooler.
As inside space isn't as large as the turbo one wing then appears (and is) longer from the edge of the inside space. Did you notice that ? If yes how do you intend to rebuild it ?
because that is where I'm stopped now with this project (except that I can't find time now to go on on it but it's another story )
I have some pictures of the real car to show what I mean if it is not clear enough...
(unfortunately none of my current project, but may be able to take some this week-end)
We also have to pay attention not to look too much to the street SC RS for inspiration because it also have some minor differences with the racing one.
(bumper lips, etc...)

Do you plan to build and detail the engines ?
(appears to be a sod question knowing your talent to, but humm... )

TBH I didn't noticed that
If you have pictures that will show the trouble we'll see how to do. Is the Reinassaince wing ok? I have several friends that own the TK and I may check how Etienne fixed it.

About engines and full detail issues: I decided to go for a full detail on the Gitanes, the Esso is curbside, Martini would probably be curbside also since the livery is too cool and fluent to open panels, dunno know yet for the SC RS.... since I need several flat 6 for other projects may be curbside too those also

About bumpers, Phil, looks me that it mount the turbo bumper in front, and a RSR one in back: but isn't easy to see well since the dark blue...

[gionc]

I think I understood, Phil:



Looks not a huge issue for me, I think I'll live with a model that has a grill (once glued and filled) 1 mm wider...

BTW a solution may be to use the 964 3.8 turbo body: those vents looks more accurate and it isn't needed to fill the gap between the wing and the grill. Sure would be quite tedious to sand down the turbo trim under the doors.....

Hi gio,

what a project!!

Looks very interesting, I´ll follow this

[AustinMartin]

Amazing work Gio!

like you'll see this Esci 934 is spoiler and fender less....

OMG, thought you were building a horrible Panamera for a moment!

Nice work Gio dude!

Mmm not exactly what I wanted to point out... But that also may be right... In this case I missed that myself.

let's try with your pic to show you what I mean.

SC RS "under" rear wing shape:


whereas turbo rear wing has a wider base to increase inside space aiming to receive the intercooler:


Hope you see what I mean, I'll try to find back my pictures on my hard drive when I'll be back home from work on saturday or sunday.

[gionc]

Thanks Phil, I think I understood: following are all replicas but 2 looks correct and the last one looks mount the standard turbo wing:

Looks good:





Looks wrong:



Ok, one solution may be to try to combine the wing with a coupè bonnet, the other may be to cut the "round" and rebuild the surface with stirene and putty...

[Romik505]

Hello! It is simply fantastic project. I when collected 911 Paris-Dakar , took a back wing from Tamiya 911 Flatnose (34070). The big work on cutting out is necessary only.




Good luck in assemblage! I will look with a great interest!

[gionc]

Thanks for your contribution Romik: your 911 looks great, did you posted a WIP yet? I'm impressed by the rear bumper!
The blue on decals and paint looks wrong also (decals looks the MC P961 one.. )

[Romik505]

Hello! Here WIP on the Russian site:http://forum.autoinscale.com//viewtopic.php?id=3454
Colour not correct, I know. I selected colour to Museum Collection decals.
It was the unique possible variant for Paris-Dakar

[gionc]

Romik your job there is fantastic, sure it would be helpful: awesome.
I didn't understand at 100% the back window issue, may be the russian-ita translator: would be the back window gasket less, and the glass would be mounted like on some racing cars, without surround?

I liked to leave a post but its is so old that I would be banned for bump at first post there , I recognized some AF fellows also
