1970 Porsche 917 LH

[Terry Jessee]

This is a resin kit from LeMans Miniatures in 1/24 scale. The car ran at LeMans in 1970 with Vic Elford and Kurt Ahrens driving. Somebody missed a shift and over-revved the engine on the second day, and the car was retired. Great profile...

Very, very nice.

I've acquired several 917 short-tails in styrene, with the intent of converting one to this configuration.

Maybe I should save myself some grief and hunt down one of these.

Very nice model, Terry - and at the same time a fitting tribute to "Quick Vic" who always wanted to drive the longtail in Le Mans (1969, '70 and '71) and passed away in March 2022.

Congratulations Terry. A great rendition of a beautiful and brutaly fast race car.

Is this a conversion kit or complete with chassis, engine, etc?

It was a complete kit. All resin except for "glass."
