Expanding My 1:43 Porsche Racecar Collection

It started with my first 1:43 resin model, the 1998 Le Mans winning Porsche 911 GT1. Then I found a Porsche 956 that came in third in the 1983 Fuji WEC race, doubling not only my 1:43 collection, but also my Porsche-racecar-history-through-diecast collection. I have now decided that this will be a collection I will do my best to complete, and have gone up another step with the ebay auction I just won.

All I will say is that it was driven in 1971 by a Dutchman and an Austrian, both famous in endurance racing, and is a tiny little car with a 3L flat 8 engine.

Feel free to enter your guesses below! Hopefully the reveal will come soon, as the auction did say “expedited shipping,” and the item is located in Ohio, which is a lot closer than Hong Kong or Japan.
