Pocher Models

Thanks George and Stephane. That TR is amazing! Since they closed my local slot car track, may be time to return to model building.

 

I agree with lucky_13_2002 on the black f40 as being one of the rarest although there are 2 F40 race models by Pocher which don't come up in the market very often.

As for other 1/8 kits around you may want to hunt down the Ferrari 643 F1 Prost/Alesi by Rosso Corp (which burnt to the ground). This kit's fit and finish easily surpasses Pocher IMO

 

Wow, nice paint job on the blue TR!

 

Thanks for the comment. Unfortunately I only work with Pocher models, so that is all I know as far as large scale Ferrari and classics kits. If you really want a challenge, try building a Pocher Rolls Royce Torpedo kit, it has over 2900 parts!!!!! I did it once, probably won't do it twice.

I have a Red Testarossa Pocher model that I bought when I had the matching car....sold the car 2 years ago, thinking of selling the model....any idea what its worth?

 

I have a BNIB K55 Pocher F40. Its still sealed in plastic wrap that may have been from overseas packaging (I was told). Any idea what its worth?

 

Current values depend on quality of the build for a built as is TR or F40 - $400 - $600. one that has been custom with leather details etc.. $1000+

kits that are in built and complete .. $400 - $800 F 40 are a premium as you don't find that many any more. Ebay has a few and they range all over the place. the F40 Kit is good, but requires a lot of work to make them look good & fit right..... Still FAR cheaper than Amalgam.

 

Here are my two, red F40 and yellow Testarossa. Both went together well and no missing parts.

 

Nice arrangement!! What were you doing in this room with the rope barrier n’all? Some exhibition? (Sorry for being nosey... feel free to ignore me)

 

I have that exact helicopter

 

My sons school has a vintage and classic car show once a year and I used to bring some of my models up and display them in a big classroom. The ropes were to try and stop people touching the models. It rains a lot in Ireland and it gave the public something to look at if the weather turned inclement. Have a look at my thread " colms collection" to see more photos.

Hi,

yes they are basic pocher model that you upgrade by painting , leather aluminium part and more.. the Alpha was a display model built in 1969 in Torino by the factory itself , I dismantle it and upgrade all dashboard , leather, and removed fender to for a more racing look , painting is a maroon red ( dark red as the Alpha of that era ) ...
