    G.T. I would put your latest models on par with the quality of my Paul's Model Art models. And that latest green one is pleasing to the eye!

    Next show I promise to take lots of pictures of their display. Lots of fantastic looking custom pieces. Told me he mostly does muscle cars for St. Louis since allot of them used to be assembled in plants that were here in the past. Was excited to meet a Porsche guy which I hope inspires him to do more.

    Yes. I think it was called velocity dispatch. Only thing I didn’t care for was how he made the axel for the wheels but still came out nice.

    The Carrera has a better color but this one is pretty sweet!

    I absolutely cherish my memories of seeing 917 Ks and LHs driven in anger around courses throughout Europe as a kid with my father. The roar of the V-12s was both deafening and thrilling.

    Son says I should leave this one in the package, I dunno. I’m itching to see it roll.

    I grew up loving them, have owned a bunch, restored some as a side business, club raced a couple and was a longtime member of the PCNA - Porsche Club of America - before I decided I didn’t really want to be in a club anymore. I still love all the Porsche cars before the complete switch to water cooled. The new stuff is fantastic but they don’t excite me like the pre-‘96 cars do. I’ll grab a ‘94 Carrera 2 coupe - owned and loved a ‘94 RS America - and will build it into an RSR outlaw, but I’d have to sell it before the boy gets his drivers license because he’s too much like his father.
