    This is the PORSCHE 917K N°23 Vainqueur 24H Le Mans 1970 R. Attwood -/H. Herrmann in 1:18 scale by Spark.The #23 Porsche 917K driven by Hans Herrmann and Richard Attwood won the 1970 24 Hours of Le Mans — Porsche’s very first overall victory at this iconic endurance race. The car ran a smaller 4.5-litre engine with a short “K-tail” body (instead of the higher-top speed long-tail version) for better reliability.  Despite losing time each lap, they kept out of trouble as many of the faster cars suffered mechanical failures or crashes in heavy rain and treacherous conditions. Attwood famously had mumps and could only drink milk during the race.  It was a milestone that marked Porsche’s arrival at the top, showing that consistency and durability could beat raw speed at Le Mans.Spark models are hand painted, decorated and assembled. Polished to a beautiful finish Exceptionally accurate scale and shape.Each model is created using a variety of production processes, such as hand cast resin, diecast and injected molded thermoplastics. Photo etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and waterslide decals are also used. Spark ensures the absolute best quality possible.
