A rare model of a rare race car – the Porsche 924 was originally built as a more affordable priced sportscar by Porsche.

This kind of chassis was used in the early days of 1/12 scale electric racing … only the bumper was custom fitted later on because the original square ABS one from the kit didn't like fitting for a Porsche car.

In the kit I got the bumper was the one for the E 12 Datsun. So I decided to cut a better looking one from an ABS sheet.

The Sport version – in those days the one meant for racing – came with an adjustable front axle similar to Japanese models.
