stevieboy2 Posted October 27, 2018 Share Posted October 27, 2018 Early on this year I found DDP models quite by chance after an American friend invited me to join a GT group on FB and instantly connected with gentleman who owns the company in Italy we are now good friends and I have already purchased 9 kits from him 4 still to come so this is my first DDP Models kit they are resin and not for the beginner. So onto the kit of the Porsche 914/6 that raced at LeMans in 1970 it was wet race and the car out did all the other Porsches in the class the kit is a great rendition and was very clean with minimal clean up required the wheels come as 2 piece and we're Alcladded with Chrome or Polished Aluminium here's a few pics and the Red around the windscreen depicts Red tape that had to be put round the windscreen after it started to loosen 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Friend of mine had one back in the day - he wouldn't let me drive it, but riding in it I was always amazed by the way it changed direction - brilliant handling little car! Very nice model Stevie, have to say I've never heard of DDP models - what other kits have you got? Neat little Porker! Keith 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keith Hi Keith I'm trying to keep the stash to a minimum as my wife and I are hoping to be moving in the next year or so but my meagre stash at the moment is a 1/20 Porsche 935 which I found in my old modelling shed a few weeks ago and I was able to source a new set of decals so that will be a rebuild the following are all DDP models I'm currently working on a Fiat Abarth 1000SP "Pal Joe", Ferrari 712 can am 71, P2 LM 65, Porsche Carrera 6, I also have ordered the following Porsche's 911 Targa Florio, 2 908,s and their latest model a Lola GT I also have a Tamiya 935/78 which I'm hoping to build on a GT2 chassis after seeing a picture of the real car with the GT2 BBS wheels and finally-I think!- Revell's 914/6 which I won on Ebay after placing a silly bid of £12.99 and forgot all about it until I got the I won now pay for it message the next DDP build is the 712 can am car and this is a full detail kit Oh and I almost forgot I'm also doing an Alfa DTM car now as well more soon Here's a link to the only way I know of getting DDP kits and I can tell you that Pierpaolo who runs it is a gentleman https://www.facebook.com/ddpmodels/ Steve Edited October 28, 2018 by stevieboy2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keefr22 Posted October 28, 2018 Share Posted October 28, 2018 That's a nice little stash Steve! I'd found DDP Models facebook page after posting and they all look really good models - very tempting! Trouble is even after 'reducing' my car models stash I still have over 100 of them, and I'm more of a rally car builder and there's at least 6 new models coming out next year that are on my 'must get' list!! Oh dear....!! Looking forward to seeing the Alfa! Keith 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marco F. Posted November 16, 2018 Share Posted November 16, 2018 Hello Steve, your Porsche looks fantastic!!! I also had contact with Pierpaolo concerning his models. In the moment I'm facing a real big problem which model I should choose. They all look super. And it seems like each are produced perfectly. So I will make my choice during this weekend... and the 914/6 is top of my list... Cheers Marco F. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
