Ford Galaxie Daytona 500 1963 Gurney
Dan Gurney made a handful of NASCAR appearances in the early part of 1963, the most high profile of which was in the Daytona 500 where he finished fifth. The livery of his Holman-Moody prepared machine is accurately reproduced here and is slightly unusual in that the number 0 has rarely been seen at Daytona. We’ve seen a few Galaxies from Spark and as usual the shape looks very good...

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.
