Porsche 911 Carrera RS 1973

Hi again,

This is a fujimi kit, a porsche 911 Carrera RS 1973. The color is pure white from tamiya and the wheels were painted with park green to resemble the white and green version of '73 Carrera RS.

Let me know what you think and thanks for looking.

Regards

Very nice! I built that kit and the 356 Roadster when they first came out. I also like the Fujimi Porsche kits; I know there are a lot of folks that have issues with them, but I can't say I had the same problems. The main thing that bugged me on the 356 was that I had to cut apart the dash decal because they spelled it PORCSHE! Unfortunately, my 356 is in rather ragged condition after a multitude of moves, but am considering sacrificing the parts to make a neat version of the Hasegawa VW Type 2 bus (or better still, the Revell Deluxe bus). The engine detail, suspension, and those wonderful wheels and brake drums could make a cool project.

I once considered combining the '73 RS wheels and making a "period correct" spoiler with a 356 coupe to make a Phantom 356 RS, but my wallet couldn't support it, as those kits were pricey even in the 80's.
