Ferrari 166 MM Abarth Bologna Raticosa 1953 #254 Driver: G. Musitelli in 1:18 scale
This is the Ferrari 166 MM Abarth Bologna Raticosa 1953 #254 Driver: G. Musitelli in 1:18 scale by Tecnomodel.
In the 1953 Bologna–Raticosa hill climb, G. Musitelli competed behind the wheel of the Ferrari 166 MM Abarth, car #254—an extraordinary blend of Ferrari's early V12 power and Abarth's aerodynamic refinement. This event, part of Italy’s storied hill climb tradition, featured a challenging ascent through the Apennine Mountains, with tight corners and dramatic elevation changes testing both driver skill and mechanical stamina. Musitelli, an Italian privateer, was known for campaigning Ferraris in regional competitions, embodying the passion and grit of postwar motorsport. The 166 MM Abarth’s participation in such a demanding event reflected the car’s versatility—not just a long-distance racer, but a contender in precision hill climbs where power, agility, and driver bravery were everything.
This model is hand painted and polished to a beautiful finish and has a sealed body. Resin models are
exceptionally accurate of scale, shape and detail. Each model is created using a variety of production
processes, to achieve this precision. They are produced using a composite material referred to in the
industry as “resin”. Photo etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and waterslide decals are often used
for the most authentic replication
