On this page, we periodically feature an interesting, unusual or unique model - usually something currently available from dealers. This is the only non-Formula 1 Gilles Villeneuve diecast model available. That makes it noteworthy in itself. Walter Rohrl in the 1979 Giro D'Italia. I had seen photos of this model on the internet, but it is much more impressive in person.
Interior detail is excellent.
The model also feature photo-etched parts. These include the windshield wiper, the front grill and air vent covers on the rear wing supports. The model also features a nicely detailed rear window with 3 molded air vents. Paint and graphics are very good. While the models lacks the crispness of a Minichamps or newer Vitesse Group model, it is a very worthwhile addition to the collection.
