In progress: 1989 Porsche 962C Paper Model in 1:24 Scale

I am usually not a car person, but I have always like the looks of the Le Mans racers, and this kit looked like an interesting challenge -- 1989 Porsche 962C, 1:24 scale from Mega Graphic, a Czech publisher of detailed paper race car model kits, mostly Formula 1.

The kit's two pages of written instructions are in Czech, and the accompanying drawings are inadequate and confusing. Pavel at Mega Graphic pointed me to a detailed build thread on a Czech modelers' forum, and the photos there have been lifesavers.

I like the kit's artwork and parts fit so far, though the chassis was a challenge. I had to build it twice to get it right, modifying the way it was assembled. Engine and transmission come next, then rear suspension, and finally the shell -- lots left to do.
