Whatever your position on the merits of smokeless tobacco, there's no denying that the "Skoal Bandit" is one of the most recognizable of all 1980s racing liveries. Though more commonly associated with NASCAR, the Skoal Bandit could also be found on the Group C prototype circuit in the form of Team John Fitzpatrick's Porsche 956, which took a solid 5th-place overall finish in the 1983 24 Hours of Le Mans. This significant moment in privateer Porsche racing history is commemorated by Spark's brilliant new 1:43-scale resin replica of the John Fitzpatrick "Skoal Bandit" Porsche 956. Extensively detailed from tip to tail, it features crisp sponsorship decals and an amazingly accurate cockpit complete with miniature fire extinguisher and racing harness. As you would expect from the experts at Spark Models, the 956's iconic ground-effect body is recreated with exceptional attention to proportion. For fans of 1980s Group C competition, the 1:43-scale Skoal Bandit Porsche 956 by Spark merits serious consideration for a well-rounded model collection.
