With the 1:20 Hasegawa 20813 Lotus 79 Team Rebaque 1979, you can build a distinctive Formula 1 version of one of the most influential race cars of the 1970s. This kit represents the Lotus 79 driven by Héctor Rebaque in the 1979 Formula 1 World Championship with his own Team Rebaque. The included decals for car No.31 give the finished model the unmistakable appearance of this memorable privateer entry.

The Lotus 79 was developed as the successor to the Lotus 78 and retained the same Ford Cosworth DFV 3.0-litre V8 concept together with the groundbreaking use of ground effect. At the same time, the design was refined in several areas, including fuel tank layout and overall weight balance. The result was a highly successful Formula 1 car that played a major role in Mario Andretti’s 1978 World Championship title. In total, the Lotus 79 competed in 26 Formula 1 races and achieved 7 victories.

This Hasegawa release focuses specifically on Héctor Rebaque’s 1979 Team Rebaque car. The kit is moulded in dark brown plastic and measures approximately 22.1 cm long and 10.8 cm wide when completed.
