This is the Mercedes-Benz O317 PORSCHE Transporter in 1:18 scale by Schuco.

The Mercedes-Benz O317 Porsche Transporter was a unique and iconic race car hauler used by Porsche in the 1960s and 1970s to transport its legendary racing machines, including the 917 and 956. Unlike conventional transporters, it was based on the Mercedes O317 bus chassis but heavily modified to accommodate multiple race cars, tools, and spare parts. Its sleek, streamlined design, painted in Porsche’s classic livery, made it instantly recognizable in the paddock. What set it apart was its combination of reliability, space efficiency, and innovative loading solutions, making it a vital asset for Porsche’s endurance racing dominance.

This model is hand painted and polished to a beautiful finish and has a sealed body. Resin models are
exceptionally accurate of scale, shape and detail. Each model is created using a variety of production
processes, to achieve this precision. They are produced using a composite material referred to in the
industry as “resin”. Photo etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and waterslide decals are often used
for the most authentic replication.
