| Description | 1/2 1932 Alfa Romeo P3 Tipo B. This huge scratchbuilt metal model is just over half scale. It runs on a rear mounted electric motor via a chain drive. This model is a one of a kind and took the builder 1200+ hours over a decade to create. It is made from plywood, steel, alloy, stainless steel, leather & mahogany. It has a dummy supercharged straight eight motor that houses the 12v battery. The only parts that were not made from scratch are the wheels & tires. The dimensions are as follows: Length 85.5", Width 35" & Height 30". Weight is around 90 kg. Top speed is 4mph. The model is constructed from over 1260 parts. This is a replica of the 1932 year P3, with semi-elliptic leaf springs & friction dampers, 4 speed gearbox & 2654cc straight-8 with twin roots superchargers. Tazio Nuvolari drove this variant to victory 4 times in 1932. All design drawings & patterns have been destroyed, so this is true one-off never to be repeated. |
