Campaigned by the renowned Dutch Team Hezemans, this red Porsche 964 represents the independent teams whose ambition, preparation and determination helped define production-based GT racing in the early 1990s. Although the car's 1991 Spa 24 Hours campaign ended without a finish, its story makes it a compelling addition to a collection devoted to Porsche motorsport history beyond the familiar race winners and podium finishers.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan\u003eCrafted in resin by \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSpark Models\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e, this finely detailed \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e1:43 Porsche 964 Carrera 2 race car model\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e captures the appearance of the #27 Team Hezemans entry, including its striking red finish, period competition graphics, distinctive bodywork, Cup-style wheels and prominent rear spoiler.

European touring car and GT competition, building a reputation through its involvement with competitive production-based machinery and the wider Dutch motorsport scene. The team's participation in the 1991 Spa 24 Hours with the red #27 Porsche 911 Carrera 2 reflected the appeal of the air-cooled 911 as an endurance-racing platform: compact, well-balanced and supported by a deep tradition of privateer competition. Sharing the car were Rinie van der Velden, Marcel van Vliet and Christian Fittipaldi, whose challenge was to survive a full day and night at Spa-Francorchamps, where changing weather, demanding corners and mechanical stress could undo even the most carefully prepared effort. The #27 Porsche ultimately failed to finish, denying Team Hezemans the result it sought, but its entry remains a worthwhile reminder that endurance-racing history is shaped by far more than victories alone. Spark's 1:43-scale resin replica preserves this lesser-known chapter of Porsche competition and celebrates the privateer teams whose efforts gave endurance racing much of its character.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch1 data-section-id=\"186lunz\" data-start=\"3370\" data-end=\"3408\"\u003eFrequently Asked Collector Questions\u003c\/h1\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"3410\" data-end=\"3540\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"3410\" data-end=\"3449\"\u003eDoes this model have opening parts?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"3449\" data-end=\"3452\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-pm-slice=\"1 1 []\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNo.\u003c\/strong\u003e This is a sealed resin display model with no opening parts, designed to prioritize exterior accuracy and fine detail.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"3542\" data-end=\"3645\"\u003e\u003cstrong data-start=\"3542\" data-end=\"3577\"\u003eDoes it include a display case?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr data-start=\"3577\" data-end=\"3580\"\u003eYes.
