Recovered Porsche 910

[Scale-Master]

Another "victim" of my passion for the Blue 7 project. Many models got parked in various stages of nearly finishedness when I started building it. As I uncover them, almost in archeological fashion, I recall why I abandoned them. Funny, once they get a wash and wax, they look better than I remember them looking when I left them. Some were meticulously packed away safely, sadly several were just buried under boxes trays and polishing cloths. Even sadder than the sheer number of vehicles I've found is how close to being completed most are. Wipers and mirrors were all a few needed.

But I digress... Presenting the unearthed Porsche 910.

Machined a bunch of stuff for this phantom street toy. Wheel nuts, intake and exhaust pipes are about all that is visible now. I was inspired by a 908 I saw at a local show. It is a curbside because the body was too warped to fit any other way, and the profile and stance was really what I was after. I wish I knew that before doing up the engine with working throttle linkage... The front suspension was lowered and the Carrera graphics are decals I made for it.

I tested some TS-36 on the hood, but it was a bit much...

So I reshot it to match the wheels, pearl gray.

Cool phantom! Love the look of the headers.

That's very cool. The gray front cover is most definitely better than the red. Have you seen pictures of Dino Martin's (Dean's son) street Ferrari 330 P4? Your 910 reminds me of that. The P4 was a little wilder color wise - chrome yellow with blue wheels!!! 8) It ran 4 glass-packs for exhaust!
