The Shadow team under the leadership of Don Nichols entered Formula
1 in 1973 and quickly established themselves as one of the leading
teams. Shadow won the 1975 race of Champions at Brands Hatch in
a DN5, but had to wait until Australia, in 1977, for their first
Grand Prix victory. The first of many for this highly professional
outfit. A feature of the U.O.P. Shadow was its wide monocoque
and side radiators, thereby setting the direction for the future.
The car was powered by a Ford Cosworth V8 engine.
This Scalextric U.O.P. Shadow model is complete. Thoroughly cleaned
and serviced the car is fitted with new pick up braids. The car
has been track tested and runs extremely well with quiet smooth
motor and gears. The front and rear wing mouldings are complete.
The all important rear tyres are in good, grippy condition with
no cracks or other damage.
The body has no scratches and the factory applied printing is
in good condition.
This Scalextric U.O.P. Shadow model is wonderful to race and
would add value to any collection.
