I enjoy adding lots of detail to 1/12th scale F1 models, mostly using fairly basic tools and lots of hand-made components. I’m hoping, soon, to tackle the Tyrell P34 (1976 version). As you may know, despite a lot of interest in this unique car, no one has produced anything authoritative to match, say, the contributions of Michael Oliver or Ian Wagstaff on Lotuses and there isn't, as far as I know, a cutaway drawing to match the clarity and detail of Tony Matthews' drawings. I've probably more or less exhausted the material available to the public online, but I’m still looking for information (I.e details, in photos) of the components, wiring and plumbing immediately behind the driver and the ‘rear sub-chassis’ - everything from the rear bulkhead (including the bulkhead) backwards, especially the rear suspension and wing areas. If anyone has pictures that might help me figure out the details - mechanical, electrical and plumbing - I’d very much appreciate it. Thank you, Mark

Have you tried the Sal Incandela book below? It contains some useful information about development changes.

Thank you for this recommendation. I don't know the book at all. Before committing, as I won't be able to find it locally in a library, is it well illustrated (esp. regarding the P34) or mainly descriptive?

Worth a punt if you're in the UK ( not just for the P34)
