This car, designed by British engineer Harvey Postlethwaite, who had brought with him the experience previously gained to the Hesketh team, was triumphantly driven by Jody Scheckter in the Argentine Grand Prix which inaugurated the 1977 season. The same South African driver then picked up two other centers in Monaco and Canada, finishing second in the Formula 1 World Championship with 17 points less than Ferrari driver Niki Lauda. Equipped with a monocoque frame in light alloy, the Wolf WR1 had a wheelbase of 2,489 mm, weighed 589 kg and was equipped with a 5-speed sequential manual Hewland gear plus reverse. Wheeled with Goodyear tires, it was powered by a Ford Cosworth DFV V8 90 ° longitudinal rear engine of 2.993cc, with a power of 485hp at 10,600 rpm and a torque of 335 nm.

The Danhausen company of Aachen, Germany, began producing its own series of handcrafted 1:43 models under the names Metal 43, Plumbies, SD Models and Minichamps in 1974. Between 1976 and 1990, AMR produced over 70 different Minichamps models for Danhausen. The mass production of highly detailed die-cast model cars, marketed under the name Minichamps, began in China in 1990 and marked a real revolution in the field of model making, with high quality products at extremely competitive prices. Minichamps models are developed in Germany, but production and assembly takes place in the Far East. In less than ten years Minichamps practically became the reference in the diecast sector. In 2004 the first resin miniatures were introduced. Over the years other scales have been developed significantly, including 1:18. The Maxichamps range, which includes affordable reissues of older Minichamps items, was introduced in 2016.
