This is the Ferrari 246P F1 Test Driver Modena 1960 Aluminum Body Driver Richie Ginther in 1:18 scale by Tecnomodel.
In 1960, Richie Ginther conducted crucial test drives of the Ferrari 246P F1 with an aluminum body at Modena, marking a groundbreaking moment in Ferrari’s transition to mid-engined Formula One cars. Ginther, respected for his mechanical sensitivity and feedback, was instrumental in refining the 246P during this pivotal development phase. The test at Modena wasn’t a race, but it was uniquely significant—this was the proving ground for Ferrari’s first mid-engined F1 machine. The lightweight aluminum body, combined with Ginther’s technical expertise, laid the foundation for Ferrari’s competitive response to the mid-engine revolution led by Cooper and Lotus.
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.
