My old n.a. '75 Carrera race car

While searching for photos of a Mexico Blue DP935, my color choice for the DP, I ran across an old Excellence article on our '75 Carrera race car. You never know where those Google searches will lead to.
Race Bred — RETROMOD

Cool article Harold. Luv that car and I'm building one similar also with the prettier early Carrera tail. It's been said the prototype Frankfurt/Paris 930 tail had a slightly larger rear rubber than the production cars that is hard to detect. It isn't giant the rsr type one it wears today but sized somewhere between the two.

I was also thinking removing my rubber and replacing it with a custom built slightly larger one. Any more good photos of your larger custom tail?

I made a two piece mold off the stock tail and made the lip 1" taller. I sprayed it with SEM trim black. It looked like a rubber tail.

A local guy bought it a few years back and took it back to NorCal for track days.

I use to build custom gauges as a hobby.
