About the Porsche 911 S #42 R. Buchet / H. Linge Auguste Veuillet 24 Hours of Le Mans Class Winner 1967 IVY Merit 1:18

TL;DR: IVY Merit's 1:18 resin Porsche 911 S reproduces car #42, driven by Robert Buchet, Herbert Linge and Auguste Veuillet to a class win at the 1967 24 Hours of Le Mans. Sealed resin construction holds sharp period livery, suiting a historic GT display built around Porsche's early endurance-racing record.

A class win at Le Mans in 1967 came years before the 911 had built its wider GT racing reputation, and this replica marks one of the earliest steps in that record rather than a later, better-known chapter.

IVY Merit's Resin Approach to a Period Livery

Period Le Mans entries carried number panels, sponsor lettering, and driver names across their bodywork, and reproducing that at 1:18 rewards a construction method that holds fine printing without seam interruptions. IVY Merit's sealed resin body gives the #42 livery a continuous surface to sit on, with no opening doors or bonnet to break up the graphics the way a hinged diecast assembly can. That sealed approach also keeps the 911 S's compact GT proportions crisp along the roofline and rear deck, areas where period racing cars often carried their most distinctive markings. The trade-off is familiar to resin buyers: no moving parts, in exchange for tighter panel lines and cleaner decal work than a mass-market diecast would typically manage on a low-volume historic subject.

Buchet, Linge and Veuillet's 1967 Le Mans Class Win

Robert Buchet and Herbert Linge both raced for Porsche through the 1960s, and Auguste Veuillet, the marque's long-standing French importer, was known for entering Porsches at Le Mans under his own distributorship rather than the factory banner. Their class win in 1967 sits in the period before the 917 and later prototypes gave Porsche outright victories at the circuit, when GT-class results were the marque's main calling card at La Sarthe. For a collector building a Porsche endurance-racing chronology, this earlier chapter matters precisely because it predates the more famous outright wins, showing the groundwork the 911 laid in class competition before Porsche's prototype programme took over the headlines.
