This is the Porsche 917/20 4.9L #20 1971 3h Le Mans in 1:18 scale by WERK83.
The Porsche 917/20, equipped with a 4.9L engine and fielded by Team Martini Racing, competed in the 1971 24 Hours of Le Mans with drivers Willy Kauhsen and Gijs van Lennep behind the wheel. This race was particularly unique due to the Porsche 917/20’s distinctive "Pink Pig" livery, which became one of the most iconic designs in motorsport history. The 917/20 was a highly modified version of the legendary Porsche 917, featuring an extended rear bodywork that improved aerodynamics. Although the car did not win the race, the pairing of Kauhsen and van Lennep displayed impressive skill and resilience. The 917/20’s daring design and memorable livery continue to make it a fan favorite, and the race itself marked another chapter in Porsche's enduring legacy at Le Mans.
This model is hand painted and polished to a beautiful finish and has a sealed body. These diecast
models are exceptionally accurate of scale, shape and detail. Interior detail is hand assembled and easily
visible. Photo etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and waterslide decals are often used for a most
authentic replication.
