1/18 Scale

1966 Indy #31 Dan Gurney All American Racers Eagle 1/18 scale by Carousel 1. Limited Edition 1200 pieces.

The 1966 Indy 500 race was described as the “most fantastic, confused and incredible 500” by The Indianapolis Star. Dan Gurney qualified his All American Racers Eagle in a disappointing 19th position. Before the leaders had completed the first turn of the first lap, Billy Foster’s car struck the rear of Gordon Johncock’s car and triggered a 16-car crash, eliminating eleven cars including Gurney’s. Only 7 cars finished, the fewest ever, and even Graham Hill’s win (the first rookie win since 1927) was disputed.

Detailed cockpit, clear-faced gauges, die-cast engine, full chassis detail, imprinted marking, positionable front wheel, hinged hood, removable cowling
