Manthey Winning Cup Car 9Meister .....

[chfs911]

Wagenpass shows cup cars ran more than one no. in a season. So maybe Olaf was in the spare car for this race?

But who was driving signal no.7 car? I need to check the start list.

Photoshop ....... more importantly 9007 leads our celebration ...... is it road legal Herr Ninemeister?

Has been for some time, should be OK to drive there now after we reprogrammed the fence avoidance software into the ABS ecu. Because we want it perfect for next year the car is currently in pieces (classic 9m understatement....) whilst Marc replaces the typically damaged boot floor and puts right the hasty race-repairs of the rear quarter panels. Other than that the car is spot on, but I'm still having to do my best to stop Marc from having the shell dipped. [8|]

Three cheers to Melv for dropping in to 9m yesterday and leaving me with a lovely Vitesse model of Kermit in it's racing livery. Nice one.

And as a result, no doubt photos of the actual car as photographed on our lift will be appearing very soon. Be afraid. Be very afraid!

YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED..............

Front bumper beam removed in order to remove 'boot' floor -the original has seen some action.....

Close up of the original 1990 poster......................

Shame the Vitesse model has a white cage and black interior...although I understand Marc intends to remedy this....[][]

What's the shell no. and I'll tell you if it has been reshelled? ;O)

The doors and engine lid should carry the same nos.

Are the engine and gearbox matching? Porsche will do you an Ipass to confirm.

Should look great with the original decals! I can feel a 1990 Cup car reunion at Spa.

Best of all Melv's car won't get a look in!

Ah, but 1990 was just a toe in the water for the start of the full blown Carrera Cup in 1991........[]

The first 50 were lighter than later cars. They ran out of the lightweight titanium components and went back to standard C2 parts for the 91 model year.

The first years cars are always worth more too.

Hacki will back me up on this!

Give me some time... still need some more lessons by the Holy Preacher of Pricelevels, who you all know. The Preacher himself is just trying to turn sh*t into chocolate, so no private audiences at the moment.

Minichamps 33 model carries slightly different positions for some stickers and a green interior!
