I just purchased the #32 Marmon Wasp II. It has the driver as Eric Bachelart.
Can anyone tell me when it raced at Indy. I remember the car but I can not find any information on it.
Thanks

Eric missed the show in the Dale Coyne entry. The Marmon Wasp sponsorship moved to the AJ Foyt entry driven by John Andretti, car #84 .

To add on, the Marmon Wasp II diecasts were part of the fund raising for the effort to race the 500 in 1993. The 1/43 is reasonable, not all correct for the car as it ran though. Coyne had a both 92 and 91 Lola, both Buick powered, entered for EB but they DNQ. If you have the Hungness yearbook, page 40 shows the car that was written off in a 5/19 accident after the Buick blew up entering T1.
I did a bit of research on this car a month or so ago when I realized I have a popoff-valve from this car - quite interesting!
