About product

Porsche 935 K2, 24 Hours of Le Mans 1978, 1:24, Beemax

A plastic kit of the Porsche 935 circuit racer in the K2 version in the form it took for the 24 Hours of Le Mans endurance race in 1978. Scale 1:24 is the most widespread for racing cars, so the model fits easily into a collection beside other circuit and rally cars. The year in the name relates to the running of the race, not to the scale.

The real subject

The Porsche 935 was a Group 5 circuit racer derived from the production Porsche 911 Turbo. It was powered by a turbocharged air-cooled flat-six mounted behind the rear axle. The body received widened fenders, a large rear wing and a reworked nose with recessed headlights. Besides the works entries, private teams built their own modifications, and the best known of them, Kremer Racing, marked its versions with the letter K and a sequence number. In the second half of the 1970s the 935 cars were among the most successful machines in endurance racing and started regularly at Le Mans as well.

Building and painting tips

Work from the interior and the chassis, because once the body is closed you will no longer reach them. Separate the parts with side cutters and sand the traces of the sprue gates carefully, otherwise they will show through a gloss finish. Spray the body with a primer, apply the paint in thin coats and finally go over it with a gloss varnish. Racing cars tend to carry a lot of decals, so apply them to a smooth gloss surface and use a softener, so that they settle even over changes of shape. Mask the glazing before painting and glue it in only at the end, with a glue made for clear parts.

Who the model is for

  • Collectors of circuit racers and endurance racing in 1:24 scale
  • Admirers of Porsche cars and Group 5 engineering
  • Modelers who are ready to take on a gloss body and rich markings
  • Builders looking for a striking piece for a display case of racing cars

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

No. It is a plastic kit that you assemble and paint yourself. Glue and paints are not included in the package.

No. The scale is 1:24. The year 1978 denotes the running of the race in which the car started.

Racing cars call for careful painting to a gloss finish and work with a lot of decals, so we recommend the model rather to modelers with some experience.

Check the exact number of parts and the complete contents of the package on the box of the kit.
