Triumph TR2 1953 Red by Spark
In original form as modelled here, the doors of the TR2 extended all the way to the bottom of the bodywork. Early owners found that this could be awkward where there were high kerbs and a modification was introduced after a few months to shorten the door and include a sill panel beneath, this also stiffening the car slightly.It is an early example of the revised design depicted here and as usual from Spark it is crisply modelled and very smartly finished.

About Spark
The range which changed the 1:43 model market and for which we coined the term 'resincast'. Resin rather than traditional diecast bodies mean that relatively short production runs can be made and what might be marginal subjects become viable. Quality is very consistent with plenty of fine etch used where necessary. A huge range is the result, covering all aspects of (mostly postwar) motorsport and a wide variety of road cars. We typically see around 30 new subjects released per month and pre-orders are strongly recommended. Made in China & Madagascar.
