About the Ford Capri Mk1 RS 2600 #7 J. Stewart / F. Cevert Ford Köln 6 Hours of Paul Ricard 1972 Minichamps 1:18
TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:18 diecast reproduces the #7 Ford Capri Mk1 RS 2600 fielded by works team Ford Köln for Jackie Stewart and François Cevert at the 1972 6 Hours of Paul Ricard. A livery built around two Formula 1 stars racing touring cars, a genuine crossover moment for collectors of either category.
Grand prix drivers moonlighting in touring cars wasn't unusual in the early 1970s, but Stewart and Cevert sharing a Capri cockpit is still the kind of pairing that stands out on a shelf.
A Works Ford Köln Livery Built for Two F1 Names
Ford's German works operation, Ford Köln, ran the Capri Mk1 RS 2600 as its factory touring car weapon in the early 1970s, and fielding Jackie Stewart, then a reigning world champion, alongside Tyrrell teammate François Cevert gave this particular entry a level of driver pedigree rarely seen outside Formula 1 itself. Minichamps' diecast reproduces the factory Ford Köln livery with tight tampo-printed graphics along the Capri's flanks, and the car's long hood and short deck proportions read correctly for the RS 2600's V6-powered, homologation-special specification. Doors and hood open on this build, showing the stripped competition interior behind a factory livery that carries none of the softened detail lower-tier diecast often shows on complex sponsor graphics.
A Genuine Crossover Moment on the Grid
The 6 Hours of Paul Ricard sat within Europe's touring car endurance calendar, and having two active Formula 1 drivers share a single Capri cockpit made this entry a genuine attraction of the period rather than a footnote. For a collector who follows Stewart's or Cevert's careers beyond grand prix racing, or who tracks Ford's works touring car program specifically, this livery documents a real and unusual pairing. Displayed near other early-1970s Capris, this RS 2600 stands out for the names behind the wheel as much as for the car itself.
