    This is the Porsche 911 GT1 3.2L Turbo #29 1997 24h Le Mans in 1:18 scale by WERK83.The Porsche 911 GT1 3.2L Turbo, entered by Team Société JB with car No. 29, competed in the 1997 24 Hours of Le Mans, driven by Alain Ferte, Jürgen von Gartzen, and Olivier Thévenin. This car was a part of Porsche’s ambitious push into the GT1 category, featuring a 3.2L turbocharged engine and a design that blended the best of Porsche’s racing heritage with cutting-edge technology. The 1997 Le Mans race was a highly competitive one, with fierce battles between Porsche, McLaren, Toyota, and other manufacturers. While the No. 29 Porsche did not secure an overall victory, the performance of Ferte, von Gartzen, and Thévenin was a testament to their endurance racing skills. The event stood out for its high attrition rate, shifting weather conditions, and the introduction of some of the most advanced race cars of the era, marking it as a key turning point in the evolution of sports car racing.This model is hand painted and polished to a beautiful finish and has a sealed body. These diecast models are exceptionally accurate of scale, shape and detail. Interior detail is hand assembled and easily visible. Photo etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and waterslide decals are often used for a most authentic replication.
