Embassy-Hill GH1 Sweden 1975 Schuppan
Alternative version SPK5670 Hill SPK5671 Stommelen SPK5673 Brise & SPK5675 Jones
With Graham Hill having decided that his time as a driver was up and he should let the younger guys have a go, various pilots drove his cars for the rest of the season. In Sweden it was Vern Schuppan who lined up in Hill’s car, starting from the back having been forced to qualify in the old Lola. He made up plenty of places in the race until the gearbox failed. As we might expect with it being the same chassis, the model is very similar to the Monaco Hill version already released, with the main difference being to the driver figure. The slightly unusual shape of the car is well replicated and decorated, although a few easily found decals will be needed to complete the decoration, the placement being quite obvious.

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.
