Porsche 935/78 Moby Dick #70, DRM Norisring Moretti 1981 MOMO in 1:12 scale
This is the Porsche 935/78 Moby Dick #70, DRM Norisring Moretti 1981 MOMO in 1:12 scale by CMR.
At the 1981 DRM race at the Norisring, Gianpiero Moretti piloted the No.70 MOMO-liveried Porsche 935/78 'Moby Dick'. Moretti, the founder of MOMO and an accomplished endurance racer, was renowned for combining entrepreneurial vision with impressive performances behind the wheel, later achieving success at events such as the 24 Hours of Daytona. What set the Porsche 935/78 "Moby Dick" apart from virtually every other race car of its era was its dramatically elongated aerodynamic bodywork, widened track, and powerful twin-turbocharged flat-six engine, producing well over 800 horsepower in racing trim. Designed to dominate high-speed circuits, the "Moby Dick" earned its nickname from its distinctive long-tail silhouette and became one of the most iconic and technically advanced turbocharged GT racers ever built, leaving a lasting legacy in Porsche's motorsport history.
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.
