Revell Porsche 917KH 1970 Le Mans winner - The Final Build!

#revell #racecar #ModelCar
Tried getting as much footage as I could. Must be more aware of my positioning under the camera. And unfortunately had to stop recording half way through assembly, as someone who struggles when it comes to the assembly stage, this kit needed my full attention without worrying about making sure I'm in cameras view 😅
With all the lumps and bumps, I was happy with how it ended up. Quite liking the look of the semi gloss clear coating.
Thank you for watching. If you liked what you saw please leave a like, let me know in the comments if you have built this kit and if you enjoyed it, or what you thought of this video. All comments are greatly appreciated and I will read and reply to each and everyone of you.

Awesome build Chris, I commented that I'd save your build on Instagram. Nice to see it on video too! Those decals look interesting lol.

[@KitBuilderChris]

Thank you so much 🙏🏻🙏🏻😊 yeah the decals, they were good to apply and work with, just the long ones that were too long 🤦🏻‍♂️😅

Beautiful work Chris have you tried the Bob Smith super glue its made for clear plastic and wont fog it up fantastic work all the same 👍👍

[@KitBuilderChris]

Thank you very much 🙏🏻🙏🏻😊 oh yeah I tried that a few years ago. Somehow I managed to get it to fog clear parts 🤦🏻‍♂️🤣 I have since then got better at applying much less glue, but I buy a glue from B & M now, and although it's a super glue, it dries real fast and doesn't often cause fogging. Good stuff, but you gotta be ultra precise landing that part on, on the first attempt 😅

I tried to build the Revell Audi R10 Le Mans car and ended up so frustrated with the awful fit that I threw it away, a first for me. You persevered nicely with this one.

[@KitBuilderChris]

Thank you so much 🙏🏻🙏🏻😊 yeah I've had a couple where I didn't finish them. Both fujimi. The Integra spoon got put back in its box half way through and the Ferrari F40 LM was a terrible terrible kit. Such a shame these things happen 😔 that's why I'll stick to Aoshima, tamiya and newer hasegawa kits

[@Sarah-JaneR32]

I built the Martini version last year, the fit of parts is terrible in places, great job you’ve done

[@KitBuilderChris]

Oh yeah some of the fitment, it was bad wasn't it! Not the worst I've encountered though 😅 and thank you very much 🙏🏻🙏🏻😊

It's a beautiful car, you did a great job with it, but Revell did an injustice to the flat 12 cyl motor. I will still get thanks to your video.

[@KitBuilderChris]

Thank you so much for the kind words 🙏🏻🙏🏻😊

I think, iirc, the Revell kit is just a rebox of another brand, and hence why the molding on the engine is such a letdown. The part layout in the video looks almost identical to the Hasegawa kit, and yeah, the way the engine on the kit is built is such a disappointment for such a cool looking car

[@KitBuilderChris]

Yeah this revell kit is actually the fujimi kit reboxed unfortunately. And I absolutely agree, such a cool looking car

@@travisspuhler7065Hasegawa never did a 1/24 Porsche 917. This is the Fujimi kit re boxed.
