SPR Models - New shipment of 1:43rd Spark models

Post by John B »

Hi All,

I've just posted five separate threads in the Sponsors News Forum about some of the new models that have arrived in our latest shipment (just in time for Christmas).

Featured are five models that I thought members may be interested in, but this is only a small selection of the over 50 new models that we have just received at SPR Models. For those who don't visit the Sponsors News Forum here's a taste of our new stock (additional images are included in the Sponsors section of the site). All are 1:43rd scale Spark brand resin models, and all are available for just $79.00 from SPR's online store at http://www.spr-models.co.nz

Merry Christmas from SPR Models,
John Bennoch

And here are a few more new 1:43rd models from our recent Spark delivery...

S1151.jpg

1:43rd Spark brand resin model of the Pedro Rodriguez #1 BRM P154 Castrol that finished 3rd at the Can-Am race at Riverside in 1970. The P154 was powered by a 7600cc Chevrolet V8 engine.

S1180.jpg

Superb model of the 4727cc Ford V8 powered #16 Shelby Cobra driven by Ken Miles & Lew Spencer in the 1963 Sebring 12-Hour.

S1571.jpg

Another beautifully hand-crafted 1:43rd Spark model. This one is the 3498cc 6 cylinder powered #44 BMW 3.5 CSL from Le Mans 1976. It was driven by Jean-Claude Justice & Jean Belin.

These are amazing! The Penske T70 with the patched up front left and mud splatters is superb! Incredible they can get so much detail into these.

If it is the one that I think it is, the total cost is a bit on the high side, like most of those month by month kits.
