This is the Porsche 935/78 3.2L Turbo Moby Dick #1 1978 Sports Car World Championship Jacky Ickx Jochen Mass in 1:12 scale by CMR.

The Porsche 935/78 "Moby Dick," one of the most extreme iterations of the 935 series, was campaigned by Martini Racing in the 1978 World Sportscar Championship, with legendary drivers Jacky Ickx and Jochen Mass behind the wheel. Featuring a heavily modified 3.2L turbocharged flat-six engine producing over 800 horsepower, the car was designed for high-speed endurance racing, with its distinctive long-tail aerodynamic bodywork giving it the nickname "Moby Dick." Despite its immense speed, including a blistering 366 km/h (227 mph) top speed at Le Mans, reliability issues hindered its overall success. The 935/78 remains one of Porsche’s most iconic race cars, known for pushing the limits of Group 5 racing regulations.

This model is hand painted and polished to a beautiful finish and has a sealed body. These diecast
models are exceptionally accurate of scale, shape and detail. Interior detail is hand assembled and easily
visible. Photo etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and waterslide decals are often used for a most
authentic replication.
