Peter Lombardo Posted December 25, 2018 Share Posted December 25, 2018 Scaglietti Hat Trick The Ferrari 612 Scaglietti 2+2 was debuted in 2004, so it is now a bit long in the tooth. And not being one of my favorite Ferrari designs, it does have the classic feature of a front engine, rear drive setup which was the way the first Ferrari’s were designed. Here are my three variations of this car. 1. This is the 612 as a convertible. This car has a minor front fender bulge, opened and hinged doors, BBS wheels and a set of hood vents to exhaust hot engine air. It has a two tone paint scheme with Tamiya light metallic blue on top and dark gunmetal on the bottom. The convertible top was vacuum formed over a buck I carved from sign foam 2. This is the 612 with full fender bulges, fore and aft, and a full side skirt. The side door sculptures were filled in. This car features gull-wing doors that open and a rear deck spoiler. The top of the car is painted in Tamiya Metallic Black and the bottom half is Tamiya Mica Red. The wheels came from a Porsche 918. 3. This has been shown before. It is a completely custom designed body sitting on the 612 chassis with the engine and interior from that car. Lambo doors and opening trunk with luggage in it. Gold BBS wheels and a Tamiya Metallic Black top and Tamiya Metallic Red topped with Clear Red. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Anglia105E Posted December 25, 2018 Share Posted December 25, 2018 Three excellent versions of an unusual motor car. You have done a fine job with these Peter and clearly a lot of work has gone into the gull-wing doors, also the convertible and the paint finish on all three cars..... all builds to be proud of!

ismaelg Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 Excellent execution on all 3! The convertible looks really nice. I did a custom 612 many years ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

89AKurt Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 My last model acquisition was this kit! I was thinking about building a resto rod with an old Ferrari body, but this car is HUGE! Is there much space between the engine and shock towers? Like your creativity, and you have a picture of the sign foam? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
