Ligier's entry into the 1978 Monaco GP sported aerodynamic aids like the sloping pointed nose, extended rear wing and wide side pontoons; Matra's V12 was good for 520hp. Tamiya's 58010 is the non-CS version with 380 motor & rubber tyres, 58012 sports Duplo/sponge boots and a 540. Both have cast metal motor pods and aluminium pan chassis with floating radio deck.(Description originally entered by Pandabear)
