Beemax Porsche 935 1979 M Class Winner (1/24) B24036

The Beemax Porsche 935 1979 M Class Winner is a highly detailed 1/24 scale model kit recreating one of the most iconic endurance racing cars of the late 1970s. Based on the legendary Porsche 935 Turbo, this kit represents the car that achieved class victory at the 1979 Le Mans 24 Hours while also finishing an impressive second overall against a field of factory and privateer competitors.

Developed from the Porsche 911 Turbo for FIA Group 5 competition, the Porsche 935 became one of the most successful GT racing cars ever produced. Its dramatically widened bodywork, distinctive slant nose, massive rear wing and turbocharged flat-six engine made it instantly recognisable and a dominant force in international motorsport throughout the late 1970s and early 1980s.

Beemax has faithfully reproduced the unique appearance of this famous racing machine with crisp moulding and excellent levels of detail. The kit features an accurately detailed competition cockpit complete with roll cage, race seat and dashboard, together with finely reproduced body panels, aerodynamic components and race-specification wheels. The detailed chassis and engine area provide an authentic representation of the original competition car.

High-quality decals allow the modeller to recreate the authentic 1979 Le Mans class-winning livery, producing an eye-catching display model worthy of any collection. The finished model captures the aggressive styling and racing pedigree that made the Porsche 935 one of the greatest endurance racing cars ever built.
