Shelby Collectibles has released a 1:18 diecast model of the Aston Martin DBR1 which Carrol Shelby and Roy Salvadori raced to 1st at the 1959 Le Mans 24hrs.

Product code: DC559

Extract from our Formula 1 catalogue BR68 – June 2009

We were a bit confused when Shelby Collectibles announced a 1:18 replica of the 1959 Le Mans winning Aston Martin DBR1, but then we remembered that one of the drivers was none other than Carroll Shelby!

The other driver was Roy Salvadori, of course, and we are thrilled that he will also be signing this replica for us.

Aston Martin dominated the 1959 running of the endurance classic at Le Mans. The team took a comfortable 1-2 win, just one lap apart, while the third place Ferrari 250 GT was some 26 laps adrift.

£49.99 is almost unheard of for a 1:18 replica these days, so this model represents excellent value for money. A little more expensive, but a lot more special, is the version signed by one of its victorious pilots.
