Ford Surtees Transporter 1976 by Jade Miniatures
Hand built available JADC4308M
Jade list this truck as 1976 as that is the year that the reference photos are from, but it is actually a 1968 machine that Tyrrell had been using for some time. The kit parts are very well cast and will need only a small amount of clean up before painting and assembly of the fifteen resin parts which are finished off with vinyl tyres, brass axles and a number of small etched parts. The instructions include several photos of the real truck including some close up details, some of which such as the badges on the cab doors are then not included! The decals include team logos and gold striping but the builder is exacted to mask and spray the distinctive arrow motif along the sides of the vehicle. A colour chip is at least included for the main body colour.

About Jade Miniatures
A well established range of well thought out kits and hand built models of competition cars, mostly from the golden era of the 1950s and 60s. The kits are generally pretty simple with well cast resin bodies, small numbers of resin and white metal ancillaries and a modest amount of etch. In the case of open wheeled subjects, the etch usually includes most or all of the suspension. Hand builts generally well finished. Made in France.
