Small size indeed. But if feels still great to see so match dedication going into building it. Reminds me a bit of watchmaking.

Right down to the dodgy Lucas wiring

Thanks for sharing this, it really is a wonderful piece!

I am an addicted collector and before starting the full size porsche collection, i got quite a few 1:12 and 1:8 scales

And I see it goes beyond only Porsche

Not sure from the picture but are there an Alpine A110 and an R8 Gordini towards the right?

Both models you noticed are from ottomobile in 1:12 scale like the audi quattro pikes peak

Are the two Countach ones from the same manufacturer? And what car is the one above the right Countach?

And above are two miuras, the left one being the sv and the right one a jota replica also from kyosho, it is known as the ebert jota wearing the name of the owner that had it made in the factory around the newly marketed pirelli p7s and sporting an additional roofspoiler coming from the wolf countach

Thanks for all the additional info - always something new to learn

Walter Wolf also went a long way, from an F1 team and adding spoilers to Lambos, to being a wanted man over dodgy arms deals involving bribery...

I have only a very few, mostly 1:12, this one is an exoto jaguar D type short nose as you probably can tell.

Would love to see your collection

Best

Most of my models are still in boxes waiting for my garage to be finished , all the other ones are just piled up

Size matters. What is the model in the glass box?

Stefan

The reventon and reventon spider from amalgam also in 1:8, i caant wait until they are displayed decently

Especially the Porsche looks stunning! Are the all Amalgan models?

There's something about the curves on a Jaguar that seem unique -- I'm sure there's some design theory about it but I don't know what.

...particularly the D, you can thank Malcolm Sayer.
