This is the BMW M1 M88 3.5L #20 1979 Procar Series in 1:18 scale by Werk 83.

In the 1979 Procar Series, the BMW M1 M88 3.5L #20, driven by the charismatic James Hunt, added a layer of excitement and star power to the competition. Hunt, the 1976 Formula 1 World Champion, was known for his flamboyant personality and aggressive driving style. The Procar Series was unique because it featured top Formula 1 drivers competing in identical BMW M1 sports cars, which emphasized driver skill over technical superiority. Hunt's participation in the series brought additional flair and attention, drawing fans eager to see how the F1 champion would fare in this new arena. Although Hunt did not win the championship, his involvement and performances were a highlight of the series, showcasing the versatility and talent of drivers transitioning from Formula 1 to the closely matched Procar grid.
