completed Porsche 914 IMSA racer from early 70's
Completed Porsche 914 IMSA racer from the early 1970's. Model company is FIT. 1/43 scale. Main sponsor should be Kirby / Hotchkiss Racing, not what is on the car.

very nice porsche, especially for 1/43rd scale.
Do you mind if I ask what the color is or is it a custom mix?

Its a custom mix of Testors enamels to match a color chip from the kit.

Very nice, I seem to be all thumbs when it comes to 1/43. Small scale stuff never ceases to amaze me.

Do you know if anyone makes 1/24 models of 914? I love this car and I would like to add it to my collection.
BTW Great build. |

Re: completed Porsche 914 IMSA racer from early 70's
Thanks for the compliments guys.
Ridefast - The only 1/24 kits that I know of is one issued in the 70's by Revell and a resin kit that a German company makes. I have the Revell kit which is somewhat simplified (with a motor) and doesnt looks okay but not exactly right (a little too boxy looking). I have heard the German resin version is simplified and soft on detail. |

Disassembled by US Postal employees.
Subject has gone under the knife and is expected to make a full recovery.

Oh man...!?!
How come? Was it badly packaged or did it look too much like some kind of terrorist weapon???? ![]() That's (w)a(s) a very nice 914. I hope you can recover it, The windowpillars and the look horrible... Good luck!

Re: completed Porsche 914 IMSA racer from early 70's
Bad news for you. I never heard about this car.
Kirby-Hotchkiss / Kilby-hitchcock, is that some kind of counterfeit product ?

WOW! Tell me more about the wheels...they are so cool. Did they come staggered offset, or did you mod them? Love the paint/color
That sucks about the USPS mishap, isn't there insurance to cover it? |
