Description

The Marsh Models Porsche 908/02 “Flounder” (MM356) faithfully recreates one of Porsche’s most distinctive and competitive sports prototypes from the early 1970s. This 1:43 scale resin and metal model kit offers eight detailed build options, each representing a specific configuration used during the 1970–1971 endurance racing seasons.

The 908/02 “Flunder” (nicknamed “Flounder” or Flunder for its flat, aerodynamic bodywork) was a formidable entry in the World Sportscar Championship, competing at legendary venues including the Nürburgring, Spa-Francorchamps, Hockenheim, Le Mans, Buenos Aires, and Brands Hatch.

Driven by an elite roster — Ferfried von Hohenzollern, Leopold von Bayern, Helmut Marko, Hans-Dieter Dechent, Gerard Larrousse, Rudi Lins, Niki Lauda, Claude Ballot-Lena, Guy Chasseuil, and Eduardo Capello — the 908/02 achieved multiple top-ten finishes, including 9th place overall at the Nürburgring 1000kms.
