Solido 1:18 scale 1978 Porsche 936 - Prestige Collectables
The #6 Martini Racing Porsche 936-78 that was runner-up at the 1978 24 Hours of Le Mans has been recreated in scale model form by Solido. At that ’78 Le Mans, Bob Wollek and Jurgen Barth were the listed drivers for #6, but Jacky Ickx (who had set a new lap record in #6 in practise), would join them when the #5 Porsche he shared with Henri Pescarolo retired during the race.
Solido’s 1:18 scale resin model of the #6 Martini Racing Porsche 936-78 is sealed (no opening parts), but finely detailed, with an accurate representation of the cockpit, Martini livery and sponsor logos.
$150.00 (plus P&P).
