This model celebrates Peter de Klerk’s appearance at his home Grand Prix in 1970, driving the striking orange-and-white Brabham BT26A.
The real BT26A was a light, purposeful machine from the final years of the 1.5/3.0-litre era, known for its slim profile, exposed suspension, and that distinctive high-mounted rear wing.
De Klerk’s privately entered car stood out on the Kyalami grid, carrying a bold South African colour scheme bursting with local pride.
The Scalextric version reflects those details clearly, from the slim nose and period-correct aero to the unique cockpit layout and vivid race livery.
It’s a great slice of early ’70s Grand Prix history and a fitting tribute to one of South Africa’s notable racing names.
Perfect for collectors who enjoy classic single-seaters and liveries with real heritage.
