A realistic looking racer with plenty of unique parts — “This is an awesome classic vehicle set, though not big and over detailed like the others, this one has no printed parts, and still loks just like a Formula-1 Racer! The set has a spoiler and fender, as well as a cockpit, with alternate color to represent a seat. There is a... More windshield and a large detailed engine, with the rare solid stud cylinders. The engine is probably the coolest feature. This set is just plain simple and just plain cool. Now it is overly expensive due to its rarity, but the set is not lacking.”
