Scalextric C3655A Legends-Tyrrell F1-Limited Edition

Limited Edition: 4,000 pieces

Driven by Jackie Stewart, the Tyrrell 003 debuted at the 1971 Spanish Grand Prix and won at the first attempt. Owners Ken Tyrrell and Jackie Stewart took advantage as Lotus and Ferrari struggled during 1971; they won six races with Stewart claiming his second World Championship. Designed by Derek Gardner, the project, codenamed “SP” which meant “Special Project”, cost Tyrrell over £22,000 of his own money. The resulting car named Tyrrell 001 made its debut at Oulton Park at a non-championship race. After the season had finished Gardner redesigned some sections of the car, altering the airbox, remodelling the nose section, lengthening the wheelbase and slightly narrowing the monocoque. The redesigned car became known as the 002 and 003, which were chassis numbers given to each of the cars made for the 1971 season. The Tyrrell 003 remains the Tyrrell team’s most successful car being one of the most Grands Prix-winning chassis in Formula One history.

Scalextric C3586A Australian Mini Cooper 2 car-Touring Car Legends Limited Edition

Limited Edition: 3,000 pieces

The 1964 Australian Touring Car Championship was contested over a single race staged at the Lakeside circuit in Queensland, Australia, on 26 July 1964. Battling against the more powerful cars of Holden, Jaguar and Ford the two mighty Minis of Brian Foley and Peter Manton finished fourth and fifth overall and 1st and 2nd in their class. Brian Foley started motor racing in the early 1950’s specializing in Austin A30, Austin A40 Farina, Austin Lancer, Austin Healey Sprite Marks 1 and 2a and finally the Morris Cooper S. Peter Manton is a highly respected driver and car preparer. During the 1960s and the era of the Neptune, Total and Shell racing teams associated with him. Manton’s cars were the yardstick other Minis were judged by. This special issue twin-pack celebrates the epic battles between two top Australian drivers of the 1960s and their ‘giant-slaying’ Mini Coopers and also marks 50 years since the first Manton & Foley Scalextric Mini Cooper cars were released exclusively for the Australian market.

Airfix A55308 Ford 3 Litre GT, 1/32 scale static model kit—PRE-ORDER NOW!

Dimensions (mm): L132 X W58

Capable of reaching incredible top speeds of well over 350 km/h this iconically shaped Ford 3L GT designed by Len Baily was built as a result of the displacement limit rule change of 1967 by the FIA. First appeared at Brands Hatch, Kent 1968.

Airfix Starter Sets are ideal for beginners. Medium Starter Sets are a little more challenging to build than the Small Starter Set range, with more parts. Each Medium Starter Set includes glue, two brushes and six acrylic paints.

Static model car kit that can be converted into a slot car body. Kit includes glue, paint and paint brush and makes a good gift item for the beginning model builder. It also makes a good addition to the scenery on your 1/32 scale slot car layout.

Need a chassis for this body? See all the available universal chassis HERE. In that category you will find a variety of chassis manufactured for the purpose of building complete cars from body kits. We have tried to include in the product page for each chassis as much manufacturer’s information as possible, but this is often somewhat scant. In general, your best option is to select a chassis with adjustable wheelbase so you can simply set the wheelbase to fit the body. Also, the narrower the chassis, the wider the wheels and tires you will be able to fit under any given body.
