This is the Tyrell F1 P34 Elf 6 Wheels #3 Pole Position and Winner 1976 Sweden GP in 1:18 scale by GP Replicas.

The Tyrrell P34, famously known as the "six-wheeler," with car number 3, achieved an iconic victory at the 1976 Swedish Grand Prix, driven by the talented South African driver Jody Scheckter. Scheckter, renowned for his aggressive yet precise driving, secured pole position and dominated the race at the Anderstorp circuit. This Grand Prix was unique and historically significant because it marked the only time a six-wheeled car won a Formula 1 race. The Tyrrell P34, with its four small front wheels designed to improve aerodynamics and grip, was a revolutionary design in F1. Scheckter's victory in Sweden demonstrated the concept's potential, as he skillfully navigated the circuit and maintained the lead throughout the race. Despite its success, the six-wheeled design was eventually abandoned, making this win a rare and unforgettable moment in Formula 1 history. Scheckter's performance in Sweden remains a standout achievement in his illustrious career.
