So I have been looking everywhere for this 1:43 Resin Model. Its a copy of Doug Rippies Lemans ZR-1 from 1995. Released in 1996 by Provence Moulage. I have searched everywhere for one of these with no luck. However, I did see that another company has this in their catalog....but not currently in production.
I wonder if we did a group buy(if there is interest) if they might produce them. These are typically unfinished....but I think you can pay them to be built. Anyway Spark models has the molds but they pointed me to a retailer to request the model. ![]() ![]()

Lee,
You're killing me here. Where the heck do you find the time? Count me in for your group buy. My next house needs to have an extra bedroom for ZR-1 memorabilia. I'm waiting for the announcement of "Lee's ZR-1 Museum".

Wow, such detail. I love that rear hatch.
!:43 scale? how big does is that? What's next, the Pirate Car? That would be cool. |

Very cool, I'd love to have one of those if it's not too pricey. Looks very nicely detailed!
1:43 scale is pretty small, judging from the below link, sounds like it would be around 3.5 to 4.5 inches long. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1:43_scale Would be nice though if it was the larger 1:18 scale, like the Maisto 1992 ZR-1 model I have which is about 10 inches long by 4 inches wide.

I've got that Maisto 1/18 scale in white/black ZR-1. Which matches my car. Now, if I can make a little copy of the white Hurst shift knob I just put on, it would be perfect. ![]()
