While we are on the topic,..... I have picked up various 356 Porsche kits over the years, while cleaning up my stash yesterday I found yet another different 356 KIt , Revell 1/25 #1407 produced in 1976, Porsche Speedster. 
It is not complete, no engine, wheels or tires and assorted parts. The box is small 7x5x3 and now I cant wait to get a engine and build it as a 356 Race Car.. I have a Palmer kit, very different, Fujimi, several issues of Revell kits and a couple of Tomy kits. I just had to share this little jewel..... Chris

After hours of trimming flash sanding and cutting, putty and prep here is the freshly painted 356 Speedster.. "Purplelicious Model Master Lacquer". A day , although cold without windmeans "Paint while You can!!!" on to the trim , engine and assembly Chris
If I can stay well for a bit, spent another week down with assorted aches and pains, 2 hospital stays and etc... I feel I am in the Home Stretch on the 356 Speedster..SCCA Race car. just the body sides, and some detail and that's it. I pulled out a SMT 1988 LOTUS 88B F-1 1/43 metal kit to start on, having trouble finding good decals though. Enjoy the Little Porsche.. Chris
