About the Opel Commodore A #10 Steinmetz W. Kauhsen / F. Frohlich 24 Hours of Spa 1970 Minichamps 1:18

TL;DR: Minichamps' 1:18 diecast reproduces the #10 Steinmetz Opel Commodore A driven by W. Kauhsen and F. Frohlich at the 1970 24 Hours of Spa. This is the third of three genuine period Steinmetz entries, giving collectors a full documented squad rather than a single isolated car.

Steinmetz's three-car Spa effort in 1970 remains a notable moment in early European touring car racing, and this diecast completes that story.

Rounding Out a Documented Three-Car Entry

This #10 Commodore shares its underlying body with the #8 and #9 Steinmetz sister cars but carries its own specific striping, sponsor placement and race number, cast from documented period photography rather than a repeated template. The metal body construction gives real weight in the hand, and the wider wheel and tyre proportions correctly reflect the touring car specification Steinmetz ran across the whole squad. Paint holds consistent gloss and depth across the doors and boot, letting the sponsor colours read cleanly rather than as a flattened print. Panel gaps stay tight throughout, matching the standard set by its two sister cars.

Kauhsen, Frohlich and the Final Steinmetz Spa Entry

W. Kauhsen and F. Frohlich shared the #10 car at the 1970 24 Hours of Spa, one of three Steinmetz-entered Commodores tackling the demanding, high-speed original Spa-Francorchamps circuit that year. Fielding three cars in a single endurance race was a genuine commitment for a tuning house, reflecting how seriously Steinmetz took its touring car programme at the start of the decade. Together, the three entries represent one of the more complete documented squads from early-1970s European touring car racing.

Completing a Three-Car Steinmetz Grid

Displayed with its #8 and #9 sister cars, this Commodore turns a single race replica into a genuinely rare, historically complete grid piece.
