My "Plastic" Porsche.
Heres a pic of my Speedster Replica. Runs with a stock 1600 tp motor with a 36dcd weber on a scat manifold. In the process of building a 1835cc with twin 40 carbs for it.

Re: My "Plastic" Porsche.
Good looking car! Is the rear seat usable for small kids, or is it just for show? The wife wants a cabriolet....
Whose blue and white buggy is parked next to you in the second pic? I would like to find out what rims those are.

Very small kids should be okay back there......but in all honesty it's really a 2 seater......Loopy wrote:Good looking car! Is the rear seat usable for small kids, or is it just for show? The wife wants a cabriolet....

Re: My "Plastic" Porsche.
Thanks to Klasse356 my Speedster replica's badges have arrived.
Eight working days with USPS
I know you all know what they look like, but I thought a pic would be in order

Re: My "Plastic" Porsche.
Nice, I remember the day that I got my scripts.........good to see that you chose USPS, they sent my last lot via DHL and shipping took 2 days less, but cost tripple the price.
