Despite tha fact the Mercedes-Benz O317 Porsche Transporters was in charge only from 1966 till 1983, the scale models is world of fantasy sometimes, so the next beauties of later 80s fit perfectly, i believe.
There is only one Porsche 961 exist in real, but Spark have made three variations of the model, so we got them all.
Although Porsche were developing 959’s for the Paris-Dakar Rally, the Stuttgart manufacturer harboured a desire for their flagship model to race at Le Mans – an event upon which so much of the firms status was based. For 1986, a crack factory built car known as the 961 was prepared on chassis 10016. It was debuted at the annual Le Mans practice day where Rene Metge easily pre-qualified. An all-French driver line-up would be back for the race in June, the 961 running in its own invitational class (IMSA GTX). It was powered by a twin turbocharged engine to more or less Group C spec, displacement having been 2847cc. Can read more about the 961 history with more photo and histiry HERE or HERE.
