Famous classic Formula 1 model

 

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 of the U.O.P. Shadow 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 car is wonderful to race and would add value to any collection.
