Porsche 917 Spyder 1000 Km De Paris 1971 Helmut Marko / Michael Weber in 1:43 scale
This is the Porsche 917 Spyder 1000 Km De Paris 1971 Helmut Marko / Michael Weber in 1:43 scale by Tecnomodel.
In the rain‑soaked 17 October 1971 1000 km de Paris at Linas‑Montlhéry, Austrian driver Helmut Marko teamed up with German racer Michael Weber in a striking blue‑and‑yellow Porsche 917 Spyder (chassis 007) entered by Gesipa Rivets. Marko put the car on pole with a 2:30.500 lap and then turned the fastest lap in the race (2:30.300), but the team was forced to retire after 62 laps due to engine overheating. This event was particularly special because it came at the end of an era: 1971 was the last season for the big‑displacement 5‑liter sports cars like the 917 in top-level endurance racing before new rules would sideline them.
Excellent quality and finish. Beautifully crafted and exquisitely detailed. Models are hand
painted, decorated and assembled. Beautiful detail and accuracy of shape and scale. Photo
etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and waterslide decals are also used. Each model
comes with its own acrylic display case.
