Tamiya's third car - and quite possibly still one of their most adventurous designs.
Utilising the alloy chassis plate as a platform - Tamiya went the whole nine yards with the front suspension and steering. All four front wheels have steering - using a rather complicated (for the time) linkage system.
The gearbox consisted of the pinion gear - then onto another drive dear - which in turn spun the diffential gear - a bit over complicated - however it works a treat !
As with all Tamiya models - the body work is stunning and highly detailed - replicating the Tyrell styling almost perfectly.
A true classic for enthusiasts, becasue of it's unique design.(Description originally entered by RETRO R/C)
