This kit will allow you to choose between
five different versions of the agile and powerful Porsche 908/2. The first version, with the number #1 and driven by Jo Siffert and Brian Redman (GB),
won the 1969 Watkins Glen 6 Hours. The white version with the number #3 only participated in the training sessions for the Nürburgring 1000 Kilometers, suffering an accident, while the first one with the number #4 achieved second place in the same race with Rolf Stommelen and Hans Herrmann. The last two versions correspond to races held in 1970. The first one, with the number #4 and driven by Sepp Greger and Helmut Leuze, finished in eighth position in the 1000 Kilometers of Nürburgring, while the last option, with the number #48, is perhaps the most famous, and
driven by Steve McQueen and Peter Revson, achieved an incredible second position in the 12 Hours of Sebring. This excellent quality resin kit also includes several photo-etched plates and white metal parts, which allow the chosen version to be assembled with a great deal of detail.
