About the Porsche 908/02 #48 S. McQueen / P. Revson 12 Hours of Sebring 2nd Place Post Race Version 1970 AUTOart 1:18

TL;DR: AUTOart's 1:18 diecast Porsche 908/02 #48 recreates Steve McQueen and Peter Revson's second-place finish at the 1970 12 Hours of Sebring, rendered in the post-race livery version with opening doors and hood. A genuine slice of endurance racing history with McQueen's own competitive record. A significant piece for a prototype racing collection.

Steve McQueen's racing career intersected directly with Porsche's endurance program at the 1970 12 Hours of Sebring, where he and Peter Revson brought the #48 908/02 home in second place despite McQueen racing with a broken foot, a story this AUTOart diecast honors down to its post-race livery weathering.

AUTOart's Diecast Detail and the Post-Race Livery Choice

The zinc alloy body carries genuine heft, and the doors and hood open to reveal the stripped, purpose-built cockpit typical of a genuine 1970 prototype racer, all business, no comfort. Choosing to render this as a post-race version is a meaningful detail: AUTOart's finish reflects the accumulated grime, tire marks, and minor scuffing a car actually shows after 12 hours of hard racing, a more authentic and more difficult finish to execute than a pristine pre-race livery would be. The open-top spyder bodywork, with its low windscreen and exposed cockpit, comes through with real precision in the panel lines and the vented rear deck that cooled the flat-eight engine. Diecast construction gives the model the structural integrity to support opening panels on a body this light and low without any flex.

A Genuine Piece of Sebring History

At roughly 22 centimeters, the 908/02's low, open cockpit and long tail give it a distinctly different silhouette from closed-cockpit prototypes of the same era. Sebring has run continuously since the 1950s as one of endurance racing's defining American events, and a second-place finish there carries real weight, particularly with a driver as widely known outside racing as McQueen. Displayed open, the cockpit detail brings that specific race weekend to life in a way a sealed body simply could not manage. This piece belongs on any shelf built around genuine motorsport history rather than generic racing liveries, and its post-race detailing sets it apart from more common pristine-finish prototype replicas.
