Golden Submarine, 1917 (GOL-SUB-1)

Golden Submarine 1917 Product Code: GOL-SUB-1 One of the most revolutionary racing cars of the Brass Era, the 1917 Golden Submarine has been faithfully recreated as a detailed 1/32 scale slot car by George Turner Models in the UK. Designed by the legendary Harry Miller and driven by Barney Oldfield, the original Golden Submarine was unlike anything seen on the racing circuits of its day. At a time when most racing cars were open and exposed, it featured a fully enclosed, streamlined aluminium body that protected the driver while dramatically improving aerodynamics. Its innovative design challenged conventional thinking and influenced the future direction of motorsport engineering. This finely crafted model captures the distinctive cigar-shaped bodywork and unique character of the pioneering racer, making it a standout addition to any vintage slot car collection. Combining excellent scale accuracy with smooth track performance, George Turner Models has produced a fitting tribute to one of motorsport's most iconic and forward-thinking machines. Whether you're a collector of historic racing cars or simply appreciate groundbreaking automotive design, the 1917 Golden Submarine is a model that celebrates a true milestone in racing history.
