Do you have details on the 917s - maker?

I have the red/white/yellow 935 by Spark - beautiful car.

Currently being discussed on the French Forum Auto , the Uniroyal 917 should have white sills

I cannot tell if the lower half should be white or aluminum.

I searched online a few months ago to find the actual car but could only find a B/W photo. Neither your car, my own 18C, or all the other Solidos with factory-applied decals have the decals entirely right - the '11' should be on the leading side of the engine cover.

Wilson Fittipaldi was a DNF at Hockenheim (Interserie round 7), though he did have pole position. Here's a link:

There was some swapping around with Willi Kausen during qualifying and the race, so I'm not sure if the Solido represents chassis 917/10-001 or -015. Also, if this car appeared elsewhere with Wilson driving, I'd like to see a picture.

I believe the photo you mentions is this one>

I would risk not being silver or metal but maybe white. Is it possible Wilson had the car in the same colors like his Fitti Porsche as raced in Brasil?

Just hope Minichamps or Raceland (Golden Series by Spark) would release both Emerson and Wilson cars from Interseries.
