Telsalda Triumph GT6 - Plastic Model

Recommended Posts

This month my contribution to MARonline (Model AutoReview) is the Telsalda Triumph GT6 (MkI):-

As far as I know this is the only 'toy' GT6 produced; it is fairly rare compared with the Telsalda Triumph Spitfire I featured last month so I do not think it was a great seller.

Strange, didn't expect yellow doug.

There was white or green, but I was strangely drawn to this one. And the interior IS chestnut.

For a LHD car, why is the brake and clutch on the RHS?

If you look closely you can see the steering column on the LH side.  the steering wheel does actually turn the wheels. So how they made that mistake I don't know.

Also the bonnet is more MK1 than 3 and the wheel centres are Spitfire (black) but the door gaps are good.

Sunstar made their 1/18th scale GT6 MkIIIs in a wide range of colours (along with even more Spitfire MkIV models) - they took up a hell of a lot of space!!
