This is the car that doubled my 1:43 collection. The Trust Racing Team Porsche 956 that came in third in the 1983 WEC Japan round at the 1000 KM of Fuji, piloted by Vern Shuppan and Naohiro Fujita.

I don’t know much about this particular car or the Trust Racing Team, but from a little bit of googling, and the color scheme, I think Trust is part of, or was turned into, GReddy.

A very nice edition to my 1:43 Porsche race car collection, this Ebbro 956 will look great next to its 1998 Le Mans cousin, the 911 GT1.

I’ll take better pics once my light box is finished, but for now some outdoor shots!
