Porsche 908/3 Targa Florio 1971 Nr.8


The basement:
My second conversion was the Martini Porsche from the Targa Florio 1971 which was driven by Vic Elford and Gerard Larrousse with the number 8 because it was my first Martini Porsche in that time. The original car wastn't very successful; it also had to give up the race while Vic Elford was driving.


The conversion:
Painted the valve cover in silver / grey like the original ones.

Of course I painted the driver correct. This time it was Gerard larrousse who wasn't allowed to get in the car until he hat the right helmet and overall.

The carved car. It isn't very difficult to carve it completely.

I painted the car in Martini-silver...

...which was mixed and adapted from the original Fly Porsche from the 1000kms Nürburgring 1971.

The decals were made from Patto's Place in Australia and I made the right printing for the plaque.

The finished model:
