this is a shocking beautiful build, this kit is perfect. I like your polished paint and the way you make it look simple to assemble. Congratulation Willi Kauhsen was a freight forwarder who went into racing in the 1960s. He regularly participated in touring and sports car races in the period 1963-1974. He became a European Touring Car Championship winner driving an Abarth 1000TC in 1967. He became a Porsche factory driver and won the 84-hour-long Marathon de la Route in 1968 on a 170 hp Porsche 911S shared with Herbert Linge and Dieter Glemser. He also won Spa-Francorchamps 24 Hours in the same year, with Erwin Kremer and Helmut Kelleners. In the late 1960s, he was a regular in long distance races. He drove a Porsche 908L with Rudi Lins for Porsche System Engineering (Porsche factory team) in 1969 24 Hours of Le Mans and retired after 317 laps. In 1970, he drove a Porsche 917LH for Martini Racing with Gérard Larrousse at Le Mans, which finished second with 338 laps, 5 laps behind the winning 917KH of Hans Herrmann and Richard Attwood. For 1971 24 Hours of Le Mans, he co-drove the famous Porsche 917/20 "Pink Pig" with Reinhold Joest, but failed to finish. Kauhsen started his own team, Willi Kauhsen Racing Team, for the 1972 season to participate in Interserie and Can-Am as a driver. In 1971, Jo Siffert was popular in the Can-Am series driving a Group 7 Porsche 917/10, and Porsche competition director Rico Steinemann decided to update this car into 1972 spec. for Willi Kauhsen to drive,[2] which produced 1000 hp on the dyno, 900 hp in racing trim with twin turbo chargers.[3] He won the Imola Interserie event in 1972, and finished second in Zeltweg, Norisring, Keimola and Hockenheim in the series.[ This car's Can-Am debut was at the 8th round (of 9 total) at Laguna Seca in 1972, in which Kauhsen qualified 8th and did not finish for a turbocharger trouble. For the last round at Riverside Raceway, Kauhsen qualified 9th and finished 8th.[5][6] In 1973, he won the first two races in Interserie at the Nürburgring and in Imola, second place at Silverstone, 4th place at Norisring, 6th at Hockenheim, 4th at Misano and 4th at Hockenheim. For Can-Am, he qualified 5th and did not finish at Mid-Ohio, which was the only appearance in 1973.[7] For 1974, he won at Interserie Silverstone, entered Emerson Fittipaldi for 6th at Nürburgring, 2nd place as the driver at Kassel Calden, 4th place at Casale, 4th at Hockenheim, and did not appear in Can-Am.

Hello. Thank you for watching again. I've been waiting for this kit ever since it was announced that it would be released. However, I didn't preorder it, so I was worried about whether I would be able to buy it. Luckily, I was able to buy it on the release date, and I stopped building the kit I was in the middle of building and built this Porsche. I was able to spend a really quiet and enjoyable time. I'll upload another video that will satisfy my friends who watch from far away, so please look forward to it🤗✨

Hi Maurits, thanks for your support. Yes, I applied 3 coats of clear coat and sanded it down with waterproof paper. It sanded down the roughness of the paintwork and made it even.
