Porsche 906 Sebring 12hrs 1967 #42 Cannon/Hugus by Spark
Porsche 906 Sebring 1967 #42
The Porsche of Ed Hugus and John Cannon at Sebring is one of the more interesting liveries to have been seen in the races of the 1960s and could be considered bumble bee striped or hazard tape. It requires the model to be decaled all over and with such a complex shape to the car this have been expertly done, with no visible creases, kinks or bubbles. The spring catches that hold the rear bodywork down are replicated just as strips of etch, which could have been better, but otherwise a pleasing model of a good-looking subject.

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.
