The FORD Escort – What ever comes my way

Many of the model race cars made over the years share a common dilemma, they were lingering in a box or drawer some times for years. It seems that at times a certain make catches attention. In the time span from researching to finalisation the projects evolves and new aspects and other cars divert attention. It is not unusual that bodies, that were almost ready for painting and detailing, find themselves desperately awaiting the final touches.

The FORD Escort always appeared on the screen while researching others cars. The significant design with the two-colour paint scheme in silver and blue or gold and red was especially appealing. Knowing how tricky it can become to paint along a bodyline the idea was postponed several times.

Eventually two Ford Escort from the 500 km Nürburgring 1968 were chosen and transformed into a Slot car. Basis was the Aurora AFX Escort. The procedure was the same as with many others before. Stripping the paint, applying basecoat and paint. Decals were individually designed and printed for the models. Clear coat protects the artwork and give the final touch. Rims on the AFX Magnatraction chassis received individual touches to resemble the original.

Prior to these two examples some phantasy liveries were designed for the Ford Escort representing popular sponsors of the period. The beautiful red, white and gold of the GOLD LEAF TEAM LOTUS was adapted as well as the ROTHMANs dark blue with the red, white and striping. SHELL wrapped the car in bold yellow with some red accents.

As it has become difficult to find more AFX Escorts for a decent price there is no need to worry about any other ideas that would distract from current projects. Even though some interesting examples came up looking for an idea for the last Escort. The look of these Escorts could be adapted to a LANCIA HP 1600. This is another car that will get more attention in the near future.

Porsche 934 24 Hours Le Mans Slot Car Model im Maßstab 1:64

ACAR Custom Slot Car im Maßstab 1:64 - Porsche 934 24h Le Mans 1976 und 1981

Zwei Porsche 934 Modelle im Maßstab 1:64
Porsche 934 Slot Cars 24 Stunden Le Mans 1976 / 1981

Die 24 Stunden von Le Mans gehören sicherlich zu den am besten dokumentierten Rennen. Von vielen Rennwagen, die bei den 24 Stunden gestartet sind, findet man im Internet Aufnahmen. Zwei Modelle vom Porsche 934 sollen hier nochmals genauer vorgestellt werden.

Sehr wahrscheinlich wurden viele Modelle von diesen Fahrzeugen gebaut. Im Maßstab h0, bzw. 1:64, gibt es davon nicht viele für die Modellrennbahn, zu klein ist die Auswahl an Modellen. Immer wieder müssen Unikate angefertigt werden. Als Basis für die Porsche 934 wurde der Porsche 935 von AFX verwendet. Front Spoiler, Heck und Seiten wurden modifiziert um später aus Kunstharz Karosserien abzuformen.

Für das Modell musste lange nach dem markanten Schriftzug/Logo von J&Co. gesucht werden. In vielen Fällen sind Vorlagen für die Grafiken nur schwer zu finden. 1976 war J&Co offenbar eine erfolgreiche Marke. Heute sind nur noch schwer Spuren zu finden. Das Gleiche gilt auch für denver oder der skurrile Schriftzug Garage Bertapelle. Eine hilfreiche Quelle ist oftmals Racing Sport Cars (http://www.racingsportscars.com/), mit einer umfangreichen Datenbank und vielen Bildern.

Alle Grafiken wurden anhand verschiedener Vorlagen nachgezeichnet und auf die Modelle angepasst. Durch die umfangreiche Erfahrung als Grafik Designer ergeben sich einige Vorteile. Die fertigen Grafiken werden bei Decals Print gedruckt. Der Service und die Qualität sind schon seit Jahren sehr zufriedenstellen.

Ein weiterer Aspekt beim Modellbau ist die Farbwahl. Will man ein Modell nach dem Original anfertigen, sollte auch die Farbe stimmen. Zu Beginn wurde der Versuch unternommen, die Farben anhand von Fotos nachzuempfinden. Natürlich sind Farbfotos aus der Zeit nicht farbverbindlich und die Reproduktion im Internet verfälscht das Ergebnis zusätzlich.

Zum Glück findet man heute verschiedene Anbieter die für den Modellbau Lacke in Originalfarbe anbieten. Zero Paint oder Gravity Colors (https://gravity-colors.com/) bieten eine große, auf Hersteller und Fahrzeuge abgestimmt, Auswahl. Allerdings wurden für die beiden Modelle Farben aus dem Bestand verwendet. Das Pink für den Denver Porsche war für den 917 vorgesehen. Als Rot für J&Co. Porsche wurde ein dunkler Ton gewählt, der aus der Alfa Romeo Farbpalette stammt.

Many of the slotcars featured in this block are based on Aurora AFX slot cars from the 1970s. Even if it was no conscious decision, Porsche models appear to be on the majority. Over the years many of the AFX Carrera were modelled to reassemble actual race cars of the period. At first, the main aspects of the transformation mainly consisted of changing the paint and adding decals of the desired livery. Most of the role models came from images of cars that had been racing at the 24 hours Le Mans. A fact that was also not applicable from the start.

Only by researching more carefully it became clear that many of the race car icons had been racing in long distance races in that period. But that could also be caused by preference of racing connected with the time we were teen-agers. The Porsche 911 Carrera RSRS #46 and #47 from the 24h Le Mans with the significant wing/spoiler on the rear look intriguing. The question was how to add the side parts of the wing, flare the fenders and modify the front spoiler.

Sometimes it takes a little longer to achieve the desired results. At first paper mock ups helped to establish the shape for the extensions of the rear spoiler. The body had been stripped and cleaned. After that the pieces were cut from polystyrene and mounted to the body. Diluted polystyrene was brushed onto to smooth the connecting areas. After that it was sanding and refilling until it was ready for the first layer of primer. Sanding and priming had to be repeated until the surface was ready to receive the silver paint.

During the research an image of the two Martin Porsche in a garage suggested that the yellow Sonauto Porsche was part of Porsches engagement in Le Mans that year. That brought up the decision to make all three cars. The fact that the #48 Porsche had been one the earlier projects and the decals were still available, speeded up the process. The decals for the Martini #46 and #46 were made to fit the modified AFX body.

The fact that it has taken some time and skill to realize the two Martini Porsche make the two cars very special. It seems no one else ever attempted to make these models in h0 (1:64) before. Two 911 of that year raced at the Taiga Florio. #8 with Herbert Muller and Gijs van Lennep would win that year. #9 with Leo Kinnunenand Claude Haldi in the cockpit ended up in 3rd place. Both cars are still on the agenda. Hopefully those will materialize in the near future.

Porsche 917K at 24 Hours Daytona and 12 Hours Sebring 1971

Custom Porsche 917K Slot Cars - Forgotten Treasures Part II

Take it easy

The plan was to customize some cars without to altering details on the body. Some Porsche 917K had been on the list for a while. Martin Racing and GULF livery were priorities. In 1971 GULF and Martini Porsche took part in the 24h Daytona. Information on the race itself seems rare.

Images of the wining Porsche #2 with Pedro Rodriguez and Jackie Oliver are easily found. Were it is more difficult with the rest of the pack. Images are a necessary source to replicate the livery of each car. Eventually graphics are modified to fit the AFX Porsche 917 proportions. In case of the GULF Porsche it is easy as the orange accents are painted on. The MARTINI blue, light blue and red stripping is trickier.

Over the years, several AFX Porsche, whether 917, 911 or 908-03, unintentionally received a Martini Livery. From the early 1970s, when it became legal to advertise non motorsport related products on the race cars, Martini Racing and Porsche started a successful partnership. Once it became obvious how many Porsche already featured the Martini Racing design, the next step was to make as many 911 RSR, 908-03 or 917 as possible. Some of the 917 had been made some years ago. Now the results did not seem pleasing any longer. It was time to replace those with contemporary models

The other successful Sponsorship with Porsche, or lets say John Wyer Racing, was with GULF oil company. The striking colour concept of the light blue with orange accents is simple and compelling. As you know, John Wyer Racing, was also successful with the FORD GT40 winning Le Mans two years in a row – 1968 (Pedro Rodríguez and Lucien Bianchi) and 1969 (Jacky Ickx and Jackie Oliver) - Link. To replicate the blue and orange on a slot car seemed to be rather difficult. Now you can acutely acquire airbrush paints from various brands to match the original paint.

Also these slot car customs were meant to be simple builds The GULF Porsche will receive this additional wing on the rear. It is to difficult to ignore. With the next round of GULF blue cars, the wings should be painted. But this can take some time, because there are always other projects poping up to consume the time and energy.

The next MARTINI Porsche are waiting to be materialize. A replacement for the 24 hours Le Mans 1971 winner will follow, two participating Porsches 911 Carrera RS at the Targa Florio 1973, all with interesting modifications.

he Porsche 917 is a race car that gave Porsche its first overall wins at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1970 and 1971. Powered by the Type 912 flat-12 engine of 4.5, 4.9, or 5 litres, the 917/30 Can Am variant was capable of a 0-62 mph (100 km/h) time of 2.3 seconds, 0–124 mph (200 km/h) in 5.3 seconds, and a top speed of up to 240 mph (390 km/h).This is not, however, representative of the majority of 917s. The highest official speed ever clocked for a 917 at Le Mans is 362 km/h or 224.4 mph.

Usually the summer months seem to be the time to get back into customizing h0 slot cars. There are so many projects hidden in boxes and drawers, to many to count. Having so many projects to work on, brings up a surprise once in a while. Going thru pictures for a new post of some 917s customs, reminded me that I wanted to remake some 917 Martini psychedelic Porsches, because I had made them years ago and had sold them.

Looking at 917s and the AFX body you can easily detect that a 917 has more round edges, wider rear wing with lower fenders (if you can call these parts of the body fender or wing). Over the years several attempts were made to change the appearance of the AFX body and give it that sexier look.

The Martini Porsche represents a very interesting time in motorsport. The close corporation with a sponsor and the stylish livers for different teams gave the cars compelling look, that is still outstanding today. The psychedelic designs for the 917 or 911 are amongst my favourite designs. At least I have some of them in a small scale to enjoy.

The Salzburg Porsche #23 had to be added to the grid of Le Mans cars in my collection. Unfortunately the Ryotaro no longer makes or sells his Le Mans bodies. Some of the 911s and Corvettes are still on that endless list of slot car projects. Not sure if all of these projects will ever materialize. There is always something else drawing my attention. But that is the fun part of the hobby. Nothing has ever to be finished. Well, some things are actually done by now. But as the story goes, sometimes you have to surprise yourself.

Over the years several Porsche materialized as h0 slot car versions. The Porsche 911RSR and its successor the Porsche 930 or Porsche 911 Turbo had always been on the wish list. AFX produced 934/5 model, that asked for a lot of modifications in order to represent the 911 RSR or 930. Most significant to the 935/5 was the rear wing section. For the first cars, each model underwent all the modified. After the first four or five cars, a prototype of the 911 RSR and 930 was generated in order to make resin cast copies.

Eventually pictures of the last batch were taken over the weekend. The series of cars partly focused on significant team liveries and cars that appeared in different races with minor changes. Many of the Kremer Racing Porsche became motorsport icons. MaxMoritz was another successful racing team with Porsche. Let me show you an overview of the cars in question. Details and background information should follow sometime soon.

Natürlich gibt es eine Vielzahl an Rennwagen mit interessanten Designs. In Deutschland oder Europa gab es eine Reihe von Firmen, die Anfang der 1970iger den Rennsport als Marketing Instrument für sich entdeckten. Zu diesen Unternehmen zählen Jägermeister und Vaillant, die verschiedene Teams, in unterschiedlichen Rennklassen unterstützten und für Aufmerksamkeit sorgten. Aber auch die SAMSON Kremer Porsche im dunkel Blau mit den gelb akzentuierten Stoßstangen und Schriftzügen sind echte Hingucker.

Im Laufe der Zeit wurden einige bekannte und weniger bekannte Fahrzeuge als Modell realisiert. Die Karosserien für den 911 RSR und 934 entstanden auf Basis der AFX Porsche 934 und sind in dieser Form sonst nicht erhältlich. Auch die Decals für diese Fahrzeuge sind im Maßstab 1:64 wurden sorgfältig recherchiert und auf die Karosserien angepasst. Den Druck übernahm wie so oft DecalPrint.

Nach einignen Versuchen die Farben selbst nach Bilder anzumischen, wurden bei den gezeigten Modellen Zero Paint Farben verwendet. Dieser Hersteller bietet eine große Palette von Originalfarben für den Modellbau. Ein weiterer Hersteller von Lacken im Originalfarbton ist Gravity. Alle Fahrzeuge sind sorgfältig lackiert, detailliert und mit Klarlack versiegelt. Chassis werden sorgfältig gereinigt und Verschleißteile ersetzt. Ein wichtiges Detail sind auch die auf das Original abgestimmten Felgen. Für die Porsche kommen oft BBS und Fuchs Felgeneinsätze von Custom FX zum Einsatz.

Zu Beginn mit rund 600 PS unterwegs, waren die “Produktionswagen” des neuen Motorsport-Reglements in den Läufen zur Markenweltmeisterschaft und in der Deutschen Rennsport Meisterschaft das Maß aller Dinge. Die Turbos von Porsche, BMW, Ford und Lancia begeisterten die Fans an den Rennstrecken. Eine unvergessene Ära mit grandiosen Rennen und Fahrern, die in Erinnerung blieben wie: Rolf Stommelen, Manfred Winkelhock, Bob Wollek, Klaus Ludwig, Jochen Mass, Hans Stuck, oder Hans Heyer.
