Lovely selection so far and more variety than the usual white and blue -

Not being a Expert on 911s, from reading between the 911l, 911s and 911T as road cars there'd be some spec changes (wheels, trim and options) the engines where very similar just slightly different tweaks. I think 911T was base model (lightest), then the S and the L was more luxury for 1968. Although I also read the T replaced the L? So confused. I assume all have the same 2.0l engine before 1970 where the larger spec engines became available? Yes the R would need some more body work changes and scratch building

Very nice topic -
I like to have multiple projects going and move between whichever one I'm in tge mood for, so alongside my E I introduce a 911. This was a started bashed up kit off an auction site, it was a glue bomb in places, tge windows are all a mess and red paint everywhere. I have unassembled it as best as I can with some minor breakages. My first issue is what is it? It's a revell kit with 1970 printed on the bottem. The instructions give notice clue other than its a 911 I'm guessing a 2 litre car but I'm trying to figure out is a LWB from 69 onwards or a pre 1969 SWB. Ill try mock up the shell against some lines too I think it may actually be a 1968?

Looking good, The old damaged body id chop the roof and just build some 70s racer out of it. I did like the red but gotta be a colour your happy with so good on you stripping it back and making sure your happy. I will build a road car vette soon, I'm torn between the box art green or a burnt orange if I ever do one
