sorry the pictures suck

Great set even if it is in 1/36 scale. The car represents 1976 F1 champion James Hunt´s car

Er, James Hunt never drove for JPS Lotus.

It is probably meant to represent the Lotus 72 driven by Emmerson Fittipaldi to the World Championship in 1972, although, the Lotus Elite was not released until 1974, at which time Emmo was driving for McLaren - which was the team where Hunt won the WC in 1976.

Hey jefferson, I LOVE the rig! Being more of a race guy than a car guy, this is right up my ally! Thanks for sharing, I had never seen this one before.

One question, is the beer for size referance or did you just get thirsty shooting the pics!


Jinx, I did not go and look up the info myself, but based on my swiss cheese memory, your accounting sound correct. Good call!

Nice set! I collect these F1 cars but have not yet found the JPS set.
However I do have these:
Hope you'll enjoy!

So did I :) I've always thought it was a cool car :cool:
However SMS88 (I got the blue X/9 from him) knows how I look and thinks I'm to large to fit in :( - well, we can't all be small, skinny musicians :devil:
