Porsche 908/02 1st Atlanta 1970 #8 Dean by Marsh Models
Hand built available MM262M
Despite only having a 3-litre engine producing 350 horsepower, Englishman Tony Dean enjoyed a fair degree of success in Can-Am races thanks to the nimbleness of his Porsche’s chassis and also the car’s reliability. The high point came for him with an outright win at Road America as the McLarens and other big bangers ran into trouble. It’s a brightly coloured machine and looking at the beautifully finished hand built model it matches race photos pretty well. The kit parts are typical Marsh Models with clean resin for the body and some of the larger parts, white metal for most of the rest and fine etch which includes spoilers and even ignition wiring.

About Marsh Models
Well established maker of high quality 1:43 kits and hand-built models. Kits feature very precisely moulded resin bodies requiring minimal clean up, equally good white metal ancillary parts, very fine photo-etching where necessary, machined wheel rims, bespoke resin tyres and clearly printed decals. Instructions usually a clearly drawn exploded diagram and often include a sample paint chip if the main body colour is an unusual one. Hand-builts beautifully built and detailed, usually from a series of 100 pieces but LE range typically from only 25. Made in England
