Revell 1:25 Porsche 911 - Yet to be decided Racecar

[Smilesperhour]

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?

Worth noting instruction pic is from online, I have the racer kit which doesnt have a side on view to draw against

The old 1/25 Porsche 911 kit is a 1968 model. The last of the Short Wheel Base. It is an old kit, and it shows in the details. Can be made into a good model with a bunch of TLC. Take your time. Happy modeling.

This kit has the right exhaust for the 1966 911. However, the Daytona '69 car is actually a 911L, and the 911R would be a tricky conversion since it has many lightweight features.
