I agree that many cars went through a number of changes in both sponsors and colours but also were constantly being upgraded in the quest for more speed.This was being done when the cars were current and in their prime so to speak.My point is that Interscope to my knowledge never ran a 935 in this syle of bodywork so why create this version today?I have also never seen the Jagermeister car or the Martini car in the form they are pictured in during their competition lives.The oddest example I have ever seen of changing one cars identity to another was on a 962 which ran here in England a couple of years ago in the Historic Group C races.The car was clearly a 962 but had been re -finished by its previous owner as the Le Mans winning New Man yellow and black car simply because that owner thought it would increase the cars value.The fact that the Le Mans winning car was in fact a 956 had apparently escaped him! The cars real identity was in fact the Dauer/Tic Tac car in whose colours it was correctly finished in by its new owner Nigel James.It goes against the grain for me to create something which is not true when all the evidence is available to do things correctly.I am not being stuffy but simply have a desire for historical accuracy,sorry if I have offended anyone!!
