Alpine Renault A442 / LE MANS MINIATURES

J.P.Jabouille / P.Tambay, 24H Le Mans 1976

As planned, the French brand Le Mans Miniatures puts on sale the Alpine Renault 442 # 19 that was missing to reproduce. The car that entered in the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1976 with Jean Pierre Jabouille and Patrick Tambay at the wheel. A car that was a real test for the following year and whose goal was to finish the race.

Jabouille set the pole ahead of Ickx's Porsche 936 but despite being very fast was no reliable. A broken piston at night forced the retirement.

This new resin slot model at 1:32 scale is on sale from this week.
