Looking great !!!! As you know , Mark and I had lunch yesterday. Seems I’m going to be back on the ford GT. And Liam is going to send me a 1/8 427 cobra, thanks to Mark. So I might have to bench the Porsche for a bit. But I’m going to get as much as I can built. Mojo back! 

Glad to hear, always good to get mojo back

I’m still on the engine. Complicated little 6 . Is there really 6 turbos on this thing? 2 big and 4 small? Crazy

But it’s really cool 😎, hope to see some updates soon 

[Model Factory Hiro Porsche 935/78]

I got the windows installed, I have a little cleaning to do.

[Model Factory Hiro Porsche 935/78]

It’s been a minute since my last update. I finally got the doors finished. I was having a hell of a time with the windows. My brain said one thing and my hands said nope 😬 After many attempts I finally succeeded !

got to love MFH they include the door latches

Looking good, It is interesting to see how different manufacturers go about designing there kit. I built a Tamiya version of this, so many different ways of making the same car

Well..I'm retiring at the end of the year...will have some time on my hands for a bit..and while they may be expensive..your only going to be building 1 kit in a year..so there is that.

Congratulations on your retirement!

if you do decide to get one. Try to enjoy the process. They can seem intimidating but honestly if you study the directions and think three to four steps ahead, they go together well

Mr.Slug.. Thank you 

David.. I thank you as well, I will say. If you ever have a chance dive right in to the dark side! It seems intimidating, but when you get going it’s can be so personally satisfying

I was able to assemble the rear deck lid… starting to look like something

With the body, without the body.....I don't care..........I love the whole build Chris.  The details of the chassis engine in your most recent pics are outstanding.  With the body in primer you can envision the whole thing now and it's fantastic!   kudos!  tim

Thanks Tim for the encouragement and also for stopping by.

Its a shame you have to cover all that up with a body!

Yes it is, the doors open and shut and the rear deck lid comes off as well as the hood

Incredible build! Those MFH kits have had my head spinning for some time. Just have to decide if the tail chewing will be worth it. I think it might be. 

Go for it! I jumped in with both feet…

[Model Factory Hiro Porsche 935/78]

Not much to show. Lots of sanding, cleaning and priming, getting close for paint

The Gurney kit is really cool. I was offered a good sum of money for it. I sold it and bought the mfh cobra kit. It was a toss up between the cobra and the gurney kit. Since these are so much money I had to decide. Bought the cobra and really liked the build. I  started the 917/30 but put it away for the cobra build. Now the 935 is the build I am doing.  Sometimes life brings unexpected turns and my modeling is no different. The gurney kit it looks like a challenge, so I know how you feel. Chris Smith just jumps into the build and they turn out great. That’s what I like about him….not intimidated on a mfh  kit. I look at a mfh kit and sometimes  I break out in a sweat. I hope you build the gurney kit. Such a beautiful car. I have to really like/love the car on a mfh kit as it’s a labor of love. Thank you for the interest.

Both feet buddy! But seriously, I do break out into sweat every now and then...
