Finished the kit today. The kit is a Tamiya 935-78...also known as Moby Dick. I did the MOMO Jost version, which is a replica of the factory team's car. Decals used were Raceworks (Strada Sports). Body was Tamiya's TS-49 airbrushed and Tamiya Acrylics. One of my favorite all-time versions of a 935. Feel free to comment.

Moby from ebay to do this car...but I am planing on

taking out the extension of the front fenders that

cover half of the doors out. and I have another one

Thanks for everyone's comments.

I was thinking the same thing when I was doing this car about cutting the flares out of the doors. But I found a picture of this car that had on the flares. So I just left it.

I got this kit from a good friend. The windows were cracked. The decals were gone. The roof was cracked through and the driver figure was missing. But I was glad to get it! Wish Tamiya would release both the 935's in this scale. Now someone just needs to make a proper K3 and K4 and couple of the other versions and I'd be very happy.

Nice work Brendan! Really clean and it looks like you fixed the problems that you had with it. I'm really digging these Porsche's. I've seen a few being built and it has me wanting one.

Thanks for sharing.

Very cool! ;) Nice build. I saw that car race at Brainerd in 80 or 81, I think it was. It's funny because I recently finished an out of box build of the same kit with the Martini Lemans markings. 935s were and, I think, still are the coolest racecars ever to go down a race track. The only car that comes close or is superior would be the 917!

Very nice :lol:

Make sure to send pics to Kevin, he might be able to put one on his website.

Thank you for reminding me. I also have to send him pictures of the Fellows Corvette that I did. He already has quite a few of my pictures up for his store front.
