About the Porsche 935J #2 Liqui Moly R. Stommelen / R. Joest / V. Merl 24 Hours of Daytona Winner 1980 MCG 1:18

TL;DR: MCG's 1:18 Porsche 935J #2 is a sealed one-piece diecast casting of the Stommelen, Joest and Merl car that won the 1980 24 Hours of Daytona outright. The fixed body carries the widebody IMSA silhouette and Liqui Moly livery entirely on its exterior surface.

Winning the 24 Hours of Daytona outright against IMSA's full field made this particular 935J one of the more significant Joest Racing cars of its era, a genuine result rather than just a distinctive livery.

Detail on the Daytona-Winning 935J Casting

This diecast body holds the 935J's widened wheel arches and low nose with the same precision that makes the whole car look purposeful rather than simply modified. MCG's fixed one-piece shell keeps the flared bodywork structurally coherent, with door and panel seams scribed cleanly rather than hinged, preserving the aggressive silhouette. The Liqui Moly livery, applied across the flanks and nose, carries the sponsor branding and number panel with sharp registration, essential on a subject whose sponsor graphics are part of what makes it recognisable as this specific car rather than a generic 935. Under a display lamp the paint shows enough gloss to give the flat, slab-sided panels genuine presence.

A Genuine Race-Winning Piece for an Endurance Shelf

Not every liveried racing replica represents a car that actually won its event, and this 935J's Daytona victory gives it a documented place in IMSA and North American sportscar history rather than just a striking paint scheme. Displayed among other Daytona or endurance-racing 935 variants, the differences in bodywork and livery between IMSA and European DRM-spec cars become genuinely interesting to compare side by side. At 1:18, the widened arches give real shelf presence, and the sealed body asks nothing beyond livery registration and panel consistency, both of which this casting delivers convincingly. For a collector building a Porsche endurance racing theme, this piece is a genuine landmark.
