ZTony8 Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 I've got a Porsche 917 kit in a Testor box.I THINK it's a rebox of a Heller kit but a model buddy of mine seems to think it's a Fujimi.I lean to Heller because this kit has a full engine(basic,but full).I understand that the Fujimi kit only has enough of a lump under the rear deck to hold up the engine fan.Can someone shed more light on this?
Daddyfink Posted April 3, 2015 Posted April 3, 2015 Fujimi made one with pretty much full detail that was re-boxed and sold under the Testors name. Do you have a pic of said kit? Is it the Martini car?
vairnut Posted April 4, 2015 Posted April 4, 2015 The 1/24th Testors 917 is the Heller kit. Done in the 1971 Martini livery. Was available in the 80's as a Union kit. Heller also did the 1970 LM winner and a Gulf livery version. Pretty sure the Testors boxing was before the Fujimi 917 versions were released. There were a lot of different Fujimi kits reboxed as Testors though.
ZTony8 Posted April 6, 2015 Author Posted April 6, 2015 (edited) It's the 1971 LeMans winning white #22 Marko/van Lennep Martini car.Thanks for the input. Edited April 6, 2015 by ZTony8
