Matra 630M

This Politoys M595 model was bought in a very bad state but with potential to become a fairly good one.

So, this is the final result

Now it represents the Matra 630M that raced in the 1968 Le Mans in Gr.:P3.0 with #24 enyered by Team Matra Sports with Henri Pescarolo and Johnny Servoz-Gavin as pilots. The car did not finished due to a puncture and a fire at the 22nd hour, nevertheless he managed to be classified in 19th place with 283 laps versus 331 laps for the winner.
