At 1\/12 scale it allows modelers to dive into the vast details the scale offers. \n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nIn 1966, Formula One regulations were changed and showed a move from cars with 1.5-liter engines to those with 3-liter ones. Having finally tasted success with the 1.5-liter RA272 the year before, the Honda engineers unfortunately had to start from nothing again, and the RA273 was not ready until the Italian GP in 1966. Featuring a lightweight monocoque frame with aluminum panels and powered by a 90-degree V12 engine, the car was driven by Richie Ginther and John Surtees, with Ginther finishing the season in a respectable 4th place overall.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nAbout the Model\n\u003cbr\u003e\n•\t1\/12 scale plastic model assembly kit.
