Description from the seller
3D FRAME with The Porsche 917 L - 1971
The Porsche 917 is a sports prototype race car developed by German manufacturer Porsche to exploit the regulations regarding the construction of 5-litre sports cars. Powered by a Type 912 flat-12 engine which was progressively enlarged from 4.5 to 5.0 litres, the 917 was introduced in 1969 and initially proved unwieldy on the race track but continuous development improved the handling and it went on to dominate sports-car racing in 1970 and 1971.
Despite the 917K being successful, another long tail, low drag version of the 1969 917L body was purpose-built for the 1970 24 Hours of Le Mans. Even after the Ford chicane had been added, Le Mans in 1970 was almost entirely made up of long straights, and this L version was designed to maximise the speed capability resulting from the increased power developed by the flat-12 engine over the previous Porsche types. The 1970 917L was largely based on the initial 1969 car.
size 27x27x6
scale 1:43
