Porsche 935 info & pics wanted

[David McLaughlin]

I need as much information as I can gather on the Porsche 935 race car. Please tell me what you know. I'm building a museum quality RC car based on a vintage 1/8 scale pan car I bought from a friend.

Need Pics of engine, interior, exterior, suspensions, etc (engine building starting ASAP)

Specs on engine available at the time

color photos for body build (I think I'm leaning toward the Martini scheme, but could be persuaded otherwise)

Any info, links, or pics will be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

(ps, the model will be sold at upon completion)

David ,
Tell me what you need exactly. I have the Cooke Woode K3 that took 5th OA at Le Mans in 82 ..now in Coka~Cola livry , one of the Bayside cars and another with the AIR version of the K3 body. I can get you whatever you need.Or if you want to travel to my shop in N Carolina you can have at it yourself

Now that would be a fun toy! I may indeed take you up on your offer. NC is a bit far, but maybe some referenace photos... These are a great start.

Thanks,

David .
I will get you photos of the Bayside car. The motor just came back from Dick Elverude so I can get you detailed photos of that as well. If there is anything in particular you want let me know.

VZ935 great photos.
Please do share with all of us all of your action and behind the scenes photos.
I really enjoy all your 935 photos and information.
You certainly do have an impressive stable of rocket ships.
This week my street/track car goes in for this mod, the photo was timely.
Good luck racing.

BTW, if anyone is interested, I'll be documenting the build here: http://forums.radiocontrolzone.com/showthread.php?t=197500

Like I said, I'm not starting my part of the build untilol I dig out of my paint hole, but the motor builder will be starting shortly. I'm thinking about building a rolling (RC) cut-a-way model. One side will be a solid paint scheme and the other somewhat see through will full details.

I was not a big fan of the 935 until a few years ago...this is the first of my collection. 1:32 scale, built it over the past 4 days.
