Within the last couple of days there arrived some new Porsche 914 scale models, that I bought via eBay.

Asahi KR 1002
1/15
white tin
made in Korea

Verve
1/23
plastic
made in Italy

this one seems to be a one off

a guy from Hungary took a well known 1/43 Schuco Porsche 916 and modified it to the famous '71 Monte Carlo car #7

it's not absolutely original in some details (check out the rare option "mud flaps" ), but it's really cool work

Vintage Dinky Toys #46371/68, customized by me when I was 12. Still can't believe I have it after so many years.

where's the roll bar?

I chopped it.

so this was your attempt to make a model of the "Menschick Speedster"

but it has got the wrong colour

? Was ist das?

That's a really special car. It started live as a real 914-6 GT and had some race history. Long after this, the german Uli Menschick (from DB Motorsport) built a Speedster of it. He chopped the Targa bar and made a construction that he could still use the Targa top.
For the engine he choos a 2.7 Carrera with 210 HP. First he used 7+8 inch Wolfsrace rims, then he changed to 9 + 11" Fuchs with 255/50-15 and 285/40-15

Unfortunately I don't know the VIN nor the current location of the car. About 10 yrs ago it was for sale in France ...

There is a 1/43 Resine model from Homburg ... pretty rare ... not in my collection
