This dark-blue Eagle Gurney-Weslake represents Dan Gurney's number 5 open-wheel racer. White roundels, Goodyear tyre lettering and exposed exhaust detail define its period Grand Prix appearance.
The new 1:32 analog Scalextric slot car is housed in a clear display case.
The Scalextric Eagle Gurney-Weslake V12 (Model Number: C3032) is a highly sought-after 1:32 scale slot car that mimics Dan Gurney's legendary American Formula One car. This specific version with starting number 5 represents the car with which Dan Gurney won the Race of Champions at Brands Hatch in 1967.
Key Specifications & Features
• Model Number: C3032 (part of the Scalextric Classic F1 / Legends series).
• Appearance: Made in the iconic dark blue (Navy Blue) color with white piping, Goodyear band lettering and the beautifully exposed chrome V12 outlets at the back.
• Engine: Equipped with an 18,000 RPM inline FF engine (Mabuchi).
• Drive & Grip: Rear-wheel drive, equipped with a strong neodymium magnet for extra handling and a modern type of tow contact/guide shoe on the front.
• System: Standard analogue supplied (not digitally prepared without manual modification).
This model is known in the slotcar world for its high level of detail, taking over the sleek lines of one of the most aesthetic Grand Prix cars in history flawlessly.
The real car behind this scale model is the Eagle Mk1 (also known as the Eagle T1G), designed by Len Terry for the team of Dan Gurney: Anglo American Racers (AAR). The car with starting number 5 is historically extremely important; it is the car with which Dan Gurney won the Race of Champions on the circuit of Brands Hatch in March 1967. This was the first Formula 1 victory for the legendary American team.
The Eagle Mk1 is considered by historians and motorsport fans worldwide to be one of the most beautiful Formula 1 cars of all time, recognizable by its sleek, dark blue body and the distinctive "eagle's mouth" (beaked nose) in front.
The Real-World Specifications (1967)
The Engine: The legendary 3.0-liter Gurney-Weslake Type 58 V12. This engine was built specifically by a small research agency in Rye, East Sussex. In 1967, he delivered about 410 to 415 horsepower at 10,500 rpm.
The Sound: The car was known for the deafening, snarling V12 sound that at the time completely drowned out the competition (like the then dominant Repco V8 engines).
Chassis & Weight: The chassis was an advanced monocoque made of aluminum. To save weight, Gurney experimented later in the season (at chassis 104) even with exotic materials such as titanium and magnesium panels. The car weighed only around 540 to 575 kg.
Transmission: Coupled with a manual Hewland DG300 5-speed transmission.
Why this car is legendary
At the time, independent teams often had to buy heavy, custom engines from major manufacturers. Dan Gurney decided to do things differently and as an American driver built his own car and his own engine.
Although the car in Formula One was plagued by reliability issues, it was terrifyingly fast. Later in 1967, Gurney also won the Belgian Grand Prix on the fast-blood circuit of Spa-Francorchamps with the V12 Eagle. This is to this day the only Formula 1 victory ever achieved by a fully American manufacturer with an American driver
