Thanks!
jimb Nice. I have the 1/12 Tyrrell P34 on my shelf.
Jim Bigskip Sorry to split hairs, but it's not the only 6 wheel F1 cars to have been produced.
March 2-4-0 , Williams FW08B & Ferrari 312T6 all 6 wheels as well, but never raced in anger.
Andy :D Tarok Hi Andy,
You are of course right, (in keeping with the split hair theme :D ) but note I don't say "produced", but rather "F1 history", as strictly speaking the 3 you mentioned were only ever experimental cars, and never entered into a grand prix - so I guess the kwezjun iz: if they were never entered in a race, could they be seen as part of F1 history? :| :D
But speaking of strange F1 cars, does anyone produce the Brabham Fan Car in plastic?

You win :D :D
Don't think the fan car has ever been done, would be interested if they ever did.
Made the 1:12 Tyrell (probably badly) as a 13 year old, would love to have a go again, maybe have to do the 1:24.

I'm pretty sure that the Fan Car was done by either Model Factory Hiro or Studio-27 many years ago. Chances of getting one would not be all that good, and it would seriously hurt the wallet if you did find one.
