Description

This is the Tamiya Tyrrell 003 1971 Monaco GP 1/12 Plastic Model Kit. The Tyrrell 003 1971 Monaco GP encompasses formula one history with this iconic vehicle. The Tyrrell team made their Formula One debut in 1968 and quickly achieved excellent results, with a drivers' championship for Jackie Stewart the next season. From the 11th race of 1970 in Canada, the team debuted the in-house designed 001, which paved the way for the 003 and 002 cars piloted in 1971 by Stewart and François Cevert respectively. While a unique integrated front wing and nose with radiator just below caught the eye, the 003 utilized an otherwise orthodox, reliable setup. Stewart achieved 6 wins in 11 races including the Monaco GP, more than enough for that season's drivers' and constructors' titles. Now, the car is immortalized in Tamiya 1/12 scale.
