Inspired by the legendary cars of early 20th-century Grand Prix racing, the Ugears U-9 Grand Prix Car is a detailed model full of vintage charm and dynamic features. It’s equipped with a working V8 engine, complete with a powerful fan and 16 moving valves. The car includes a functional transmission with idle, reverse, and race modes, operated by a link rod — adding realism and interactive play.
Rubberised wheels and spring-suspended forks provide smooth acceleration and impressive range, powered by a crank-wound rubber band motor. A drive belt runs visibly along the side, and flowing lines and classic design details give the model its distinctive “old-school” appeal, reminiscent of early Formula One prototypes.
With 3D puzzle-style assembly and high-quality laser-cut plywood components, this is a model made to be built and admired. All parts are pre-cut and fit together without the need for glue or special tools. It’s perfect for solo builders, model lovers, and families looking for a rewarding project.
Whether you’re a motorsport enthusiast or a fan of mechanical models, the U-9 Grand Prix Car is a timeless piece that combines craftsmanship, movement, and nostalgia.
