At the end of April, Tamiya will begin distributing a new version of the Tyrrell P34. The model is a replica of the only 6-wheeled F1 race car ever to compete in the history of F1, caused a lot of fanfare and controversy when it was introduced in 1976. The Tyrrell P34 captures the essence of this iconic race car as it raced in the 1977 Monaco GP. It comes loaded with slightly updated markings and some essential Hop-Up options right out of the box.
The Tyrrell P34 1977 Monaco GP Special features an accurate multi-piece polycarbonate body. Body, driver torso, mirror sections, rear wing, oil cooler and other aero parts come pre-painted for a simpler assembly process.
