This s the Tyrell F1 P34 Elf 6 Wheels #4 2nd 1976 Sweden GP in 1:18 scale by GP Replicas.
The Tyrrell P34, car number 4, driven by Patrick Depailler, secured a remarkable second-place finish at the 1976 Swedish Grand Prix, making it a historic race as both Tyrrell's six-wheeled cars finished first and second. Depailler, known for his bravery and technical skill, played a crucial role in showcasing the innovative P34's potential. This race was particularly unique because it was the only time in Formula 1 history that a six-wheeled car not only competed but also took the top two positions on the podium. Depailler's smooth and consistent driving complemented Jody Scheckter's victory, as the French driver expertly handled the challenging Anderstorp circuit. The Tyrrell P34's radical design, with its four small front wheels, provided exceptional grip and stability, which Depailler used to his advantage. The 1976 Swedish GP remains a legendary event in F1 history, with Depailler's performance solidifying his reputation as a talented and fearless driver.
This model is hand painted and polished to a beautiful finish and has a sealed body. Resin models are
exceptionally accurate of scale, shape and detail. Each model is created using a variety of production
processes, to achieve this precision. They are produced using a composite material referred to in the
industry as “resin”. Photo etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and waterslide decals are often used
for the most authentic replication.
