Matra MS1 Goodwood F3 1965 Stewart by Spark
This reference was initially listed as an MS5 F2 car but is the previous year’s MS1 in F3 guise. We’ve been unable to find photos of Stewart’s Goodwood test in the car, but the general shape looks good compared to photos and at the rear we see the carburettor and exhaust from the 1000cc Ford Cosworth engine poking through the bodywork. The exposed gearbox and suspension parts are finely detailed and the paintwork is excellent.

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.
