Porsche 911 SC Sears Point 1981 #62 by Arena
Kit available ARE815
Bill Koll ran his colourful Kegel Enterprises Porsche in two seasons of IMSA GTU racing and the high point came at Sears Point with a second placed finish. The bodywork on this car is much modified with quite angular extensions to the wheel arches all around. When we saw the kit parts the edges of the bodywork looked a little soft, particularly on the rear arches, and these lines are almost lost on the finished model. The decals are clearly printed and neatly applied but the stripes should continue over the headlight covers rather than these being plain white. It’s still a very good looking model and finished to a high standard, just not Arena’s most accurate offering.

About Arena
Accurate, well detailed resin kits with white metal ancillaries and excellent photo-etched details. Instructions sometimes slightly vague but normally adequate. Castings on some subjects can be a little rough but more recent releases have all been excellent. Due to the amount of etch, they can be quite fiddly to build but in experienced hands make excellent miniatures. Hand built models also available to order. Made in Italy.
