Premium Classixxs Mercedes-Benz O317 "Porsche" Race Transporters.

Just received the third transporter variation - the later Martini version in white.

Original in red - I think this dates from 1967 - the VW T2 is also from PC

Silver Martini - from 1971 - 1975

Thanks Ray.

I'm hoping that this won't be the last - the O317 transporters had a very long career - they lasted into the 956 era. I think there are also Essex, Jules & Rothmans variants - at least one went to John Wyer, so a Gulf version should be possible as well.

I've also seen photos of two, in the white Martini livery, parked side by side - there were subtle differences....so maybe another :)
