This is the McLaren M8D Can Am Watkins Glen 1970 Car #5 WINNER in 1:18 scale by Tecnomodel.

In the 1970 Can-Am race at Watkins Glen, the McLaren M8D, piloted by Denny Hulme, claimed victory in a dominant display of speed and skill. Hulme, a seasoned racing driver from New Zealand, showcased his exceptional talent and experience as he navigated the challenging circuit with precision and determination. This race was particularly notable for the McLaren team's innovative use of ground-effect aerodynamics, which provided the M8D with unparalleled grip and cornering capabilities. Despite facing stiff competition from rival manufacturers, Hulme's victory in the McLaren M8D solidified his status as one of the era's top drivers and underscored McLaren's dominance in the Can-Am series. This event remains a significant milestone in motorsport history, highlighting McLaren's pioneering spirit and technological innovation in pursuit of victory on the track.

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.
