I'm new here but thought I would post some of my previous builds.

Reworked AMT 935, 1/24 scale.

Inspired by an article that appeared in MRRN, I changed the rear flares with Bondo, corrected the shape of the uprights for the rear wing, new rear wing reshaped from a ruler, vac-formed the glass areas and finished up with a Cady decal sheet and pinched what ever else i needed from other sheets. All rear plumbing done with aluminum tubing.

MRRN was a terrific source for our tiny niche of modelers. I have the complete set somewhere but I've yet to find the box I packed them in.....humph......

Hard to beat a MOMO livery on any racing car and your Porsche looks especially good. I built an AMT 935 many years ago and found it to be surprisingly OK.

I did not know the AMT kit could be made to look so good but I suspect your modifications and upgrades to be quite substantial. 

I don't know how you did the race weathering but it is very effective and realistic looking.

Well done build!! I like that kit. KINDA curbside and simple it can be made to look good. 

The kit started out as a Japanese kit, sold to ESCI. RC2 bought ESCI and used the 935 kit twice. A while back AMT asked if I had any mint kits as they wanted to find the tooling. They never found it and a year laterItlaeri issued it. Somehow it ended up there.
