Studio27 1:24, Porsche 934 Vaillant Kremer, 1976 is a decal sheet for the Porsche 934 kit from Tamiya. This is not a kit, but strictly the markings of the green and white livery of the Kremer team.
Responsibility details are not available.
A decal sheet in 1:24 scale from Studio27 with the legendary green and white Vaillant livery of the Kremer Racing team from the 1976 season. Do not let the name confuse you: this is a decal set, not a kit. No parts, no plastic, just the markings. The model you will apply them to, that is the Porsche 934 kit from Tamiya, has to be obtained separately, just like the paints.
The Porsche 934 was the version of the 911 Turbo adapted for Group 4: a turbocharged six-cylinder engine, enormous flared fenders, a front spoiler and a rear wing. Porsche built it as a customer car for sale to private stables, which is the whole reason why so many color versions of it exist and why decal sheets for the 934 are worth it: the box from Tamiya holds only a limited choice of schemes, while a sheet opens up the whole rest of the starting field for you.
Kremer Racing of the Kremer brothers from Cologne is right at the top of those teams. They were not satisfied with what Porsche sold them: they went on developing and improving the cars themselves, and in 1979 they won the 24 Hours of Le Mans with their own version of the Porsche 935 K3, which no private team had managed until then. The German heating company Vaillant was their long-time sponsor and gave them the unmistakable green and white combination; in 1976 it was above all Bob Wollek who raced the Kremer 934 in it in the German sports car championship.
The greatest pitfall of the build revolves around the green and white livery as well: the sheet does not cover the whole body. The basic colors have to be sprayed, the decals add the logos and the dividing lines, so get the matching shades to go with the sheet right away, otherwise the build will stall. Then there is the iron rule: decals are applied to GLOSS clear coat. On a matte base air is trapped under the film and the decal starts to silver along the edges. And one more necessity: with a 934 and such bulging fenders, decal softener is practically mandatory equipment, as without it the film wrinkles on the curve. Once it is dry comes clear coat over the decals and polishing: the markings disappear under the coat and the surface gains the depth a racing car needs.
Only decals are included in the package, not the kit, paints, clear coat, softener or glue. Other Porsche 934 liveries were made as well, so you can build the whole starting field.
