Now THAT is COOL!

Anyone know where that car is? $$$$$$$$

anyone else???

btw - the above pic is from August 1974

this pic is from 1972, a few weeks after it left Stuttgard:

That black/orange one above looks like it has the 914 graphic on the hood. Its the one that has the 914 at the base of the stripes leading over the hood.

Very '70's

off course there's no 914 graphic on the front hood, but a 916:

It's been my experiance in building hundreds of "Gulf Blue" 917's and other historic Porsches that it tends to be more of a muted powder blue. The older pictures are not all that accurate. Many restorations have gotten it wrong.

I was able to find a color from DuPont named " Gulf Blue" and the code is 328 from 1978.

Sounds like a fair price if it's 1/18th scale. The colors just about right.

Is that gulf model Auto Art or Exotto? If it's Auto Art it may be a bit high. Exotto's stuff is steps above and would normally go for low triple digits.

even Ford race cars came with Gulf colors:
Ford GT 40 #4
Ford GT 40 #6

don't think so
at the other pic (silver/orange) there is the factory original antenna
the type you like came together with the new paint

Gustl
