Lauda’s First Grand Prix Winner from Tecnomodel!
We may be on vacation, but we’re still on the lookout for good stuff!
More important announcements from Tecnomodel on this Austrian GP weekend: The company will produce a 1/18 scale resin replica of the Ferrari 312 B3 driven by Niki Lauda to his first Grand Prix victory in the 1974 Spanish GP. A Regazzoni 1974 German GP winner has also been announced along with several other Ferrari GP cars.
We will post information on the entire range soon but you can reserve your Lauda car HERE.
Gallery Closed Next Week
As we wrap up the first half of 2019, we’re pleased that deliveries from the model companies seem to be picking up speed (fear of tariffs?), bringing us an exciting collection of new ‘stuff’ to promote so far this year. But, because of the sheer velocity of the arrival of those great new products (and our advancing years) we find ourselves in dire need of a few days off to recharge.
Plus, there’s my Grandson’s first birthday and a family gathering this weekend.
In any case, we have decided to take a short hiatus over the Fourth of July. The Gallery will be closed from this Saturday, June 29 until Monday, July 8 but I will be checking and responding to orders and other email on a regular basis during that period.
It’s been a busy week for new arrivals and we are working hard to get everything out the door before the weekend. The Minichamps Ford GTs will be here Friday. We’ve also taken a delivery of a fresh shipment of display cases, including our own Custom Acrylic Cover for the TopSpeed Ford GT 2016 LM GTE Pro Winner (below).
Also, we thought we’d show you BBR’s 1/43 scale 2019 Canadian Grand Prix Winner Diorama. You can insert the car of your choice at a later date, but I think it makes a great statement all by itself.
Have a safe Independence Day Week. Come back in one piece!
