Toine Hezemans drove this car to victory at the European GT Championship, while in the U.S., with George Follmer at the wheel, it also became the Trans-Am champion.

I don’t build scale model cars very often, but my experience with this Revell kit was pleasant. The bodywork was painted using a Tamiya gloss white spray can. A lot of parts also needed to be hand painted, like the engine and elements such as the roll cage and seats. Building this kit was straightforward and the decals with the Martini livery make the car come to life in my opinion.
