Porsche Carrera RS TdF 1976 #332 by Arena
Porsche Carrera RS Tour de France 1976 #332
Alternative version ARE865M Giro d Italia & ARE865 kit
In terms of body shape, the Porsche of Francis Roussely was a regular 3.0 RS but slightly unusual was the addition of a large bull bar on the front, used on both the Tour de France and Giro d’Italia and this also provides a mounting for several spot-lamps. The exhaust pipes on our sample are a little uneven, but the rest of the detailing is very well done from those lights at the front through delicate wipers and mirrors (the passenger side turned in which is the same on Arena’s pre-production images we received some time ago and our sample model, so deliberate!) and plenty of cabin equipment. The paintwork on our sample is excellent, with carefully placed decals and overall it is an attractive model.

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.
