Ferrari 250P 1963

Thanks, guys for your comments. Danny the driver is infact just new head attached to the original moulded interior. The head is one of a pair of Classic Drivers offered as a spare by PINK CAR. I thought that the original drivers head looked a little small.

As for the chassis, as I said before this model is based on one of the MRRC RTR cars that were around about 5 years ago and apart from a small magnet and the wheel and tyre change it completely stock.

I have now started work on 2 more classic Ferrari open sports cars, one of them is based on a TAYLORMADE (who remembers them?) vac formed shell, which is at least 35 years old! and one of Gordon Tapsells (GT) excellent early 70's mouldings.

Regards GT

Hey - where did you find the old Taylor & GT shells? Don't tell me you've had them sitting in a box for 30 years!
Some of the Taylor made shells were pretty dodgy 'handling' types, weren't they- 2 1/2" wide no matter what. What Ferraris do you have?
Love to hear more....
And I agree about drivers heads- there's a huge variation in size amongst the various manufacturers. It makes a big difference to how the car looks. Someday we should check real life helmet sizes from different periods, see how they scale down.

Excellent, GT!

super shells made a 250P. Monogram made a 275P (the 1964 version, with 3.3l. engine)

Thanks... so if I want the Le Mans winner from 1963 you think I can use the MRRC kit with the 1964 275P car?

Kind regards // Richard

That 's fine, but if you can get hold of the Monogram model, or the Super Shells body that's even better!

Your advice comes a bit late, 17 years late that is 😇
