In 1978, Team Lotus introduced the Type 79, a revolutionary race car that dominated the Formula One circuit. Known for its aerodynamic design and engineering advancements, this model is a tribute to the vehicle driven by R. Peterson during the British GP, capturing the essence of a racing legend.
This finished model by Tamiya replicates the distinctive features of the original Type 79 with precision. From the taller roll bar to the smaller air outlet on the left pontoon, every detail has been meticulously crafted. The side mirror surfaces are enhanced with metal transfers, and photo-etched seatbelt buckles add realism to the cockpit area. A display base with a nameplate and a clear case is included, making it an ideal piece for any collector's showcase.
