    This is the BMW M1 (E26) #88 1980 Procar Series in 1:18 scale w/ Decals by WERK83.The BMW M1 (E26) Team GS No. 88, driven by John Watson in the 1980 Procar Series, was part of one of the most exciting support series in motorsport history. Watson, an accomplished Formula 1 driver known for his smooth driving and racecraft, competed in this unique championship where F1 drivers and top sports car racers battled in identical BMW M1s. The Procar Series was particularly thrilling as it placed elite single-seater drivers into powerful mid-engine sports cars, testing their adaptability and raw skill. Watson’s participation in the 1980 season added to the prestige of the series, with close racing on legendary circuits, often serving as a preview to the Formula 1 action that followed. The BMW M1 Procar remains one of the most celebrated one-make series, and Watson’s involvement further cemented its legendary status.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.
