Description

This metal racing car figurine brings the look of a classic open-wheeled race car to a shelf or desk, right down to the number 8 on its nose and side and a small Union Jack beside the cockpit. It has a bronze finish with a weathered, aged character, set off by copper-coloured front and rear wings and wheel hubs. The Double Doozer runs along the side in printed lettering, and the rear wing carries crossed chequered flags with more of the same name. It measures 20cm wide, 11cm deep and 5cm high, so it sits comfortably on a bookcase or mantelpiece without crowding it.

We see it on a study shelf, an office desk, a sideboard or a chest of drawers, anywhere a little motorsport character would be welcome. The open cockpit, wire roll hoop and exposed engine pipework at the back give the eye plenty to linger over, so it works well as a talking point among books and framed photographs. It is a decorative ornament for display rather than a toy, and it makes a thoughtful Father's Day gift that will stay out on show long after the day itself.

Made from metal, the figurine is built up from shaped panels with visible seams, rivet-style details and fine wire work, all of which add to its well-worn look. It rests steadily on its four wheels on any flat surface, so it needs no stand or fixing. To keep it looking its best, dust it now and then with a soft dry cloth and keep it in a dry room. For gifting, add a card with a few words about a favourite race, and it is ready to be unwrapped on the day.
