Great historic colour scheme! Your Fuchs make me want to polish the lips on mine. Nicely done.

Awesome!

I've always wanted to do a white 928 track car in either the Rothmans or Loenbrau scheme complete with decals. I'm leaning towards the Rothmans only due to the tobacco ban.

Nice, I love that scheme! don't forget the GULF and SEV Marchal logos too.

But do yourself a favour - get rid of the rear under valence. It's nothing but a giant drogue chute. (aka Air Brake) it serves no useful purpose at all!!!

Manu, there are usually turbo valences on eBay. There is one on auction on www.ebay.co.uk at the moment.

For the decals, it is probably best to have a vinyl shop make them for you, since they are likely impossible to get elsewhere. You can give the vinyl/plastic shop an example of the decal in a photo, and they should be able to blow it up to size for you!
