Italeri 4702 1/12 Fiat 806 Grand Prix Collector Kit  [IT-4702S]

Italeri 4702 Fiat 806 Grand Prix - 1927 Racing Pioneer

The Italeri 4702 1/12 Fiat 806 Grand Prix model gives hobbyists a hands-on look at one of the landmark race cars of 1927. The kit recreates the original car that influenced later Grand Prix engineering and notes the era's powerful 180 HP 12-cylinder engine with top speeds reported above 240 km/h.

Engine Detail and Functional Steering

This build focuses on authentic mechanical detail rather than electronic components. The engine is modelled with fine parts and is visible beneath an opening bonnet, while the working steering adds realism to presentations and displays.

Chassis Layout and Historical Design

The Fiat 806 stood out for its innovative arrangement that positioned the engine and gearbox within a bridged chassis, improving balance and handling. The kit mirrors those layout choices to give experienced builders an engaging assembly experience.
