Good article on the car: https://winstongoodfellow.com/ferrari-330-gtc-speciale-living-like-royalty/#!

Here is a link to the Photobucket of Niko Neimi, who mastered the 500 Superfast. Scroll down to find the Superfast: https://s20.photobucket.com/user/nniemi/library/Scale Kraft 212MM?page=1

Airtrax did the 500 Superfast, I don't have the Perma-grit cutters.

The de Rethy car styling is a continuation of Pinifarina's top of the line extended nose/ oval opening started in 1957 with the Superfast; and used in all special coachbuilt cars as the 1964 500 Superfast and 1966 365 California Spyder. However, it incorporated the extended C-pillar of the upcoming 1968 Dino. Pf stylists are not well known, but I think all are the work on Aldo Brovarone.

Ha! If I had a cad file of this, I would print it and it would literally snap together. And I've done it - see my Fiat Supersonic.

Four of these bodies were built; here is some info from coachbuilt.com: https://www.coachbuild.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6&t=1786

Maybe, maybe not.

The nose is easy, it's the rear that's hard.

Check my drawing, which I've done in 1/24th to help visualize the model and dimension the parts I will replace. The roof and the rear of the model will be built of high density urethane.

Not close enough.

I have started a WIP thread about modifying an Airtrax 1967 Ferrari 330 GTC to the de Rethy 330 GTC Speciale. -

The 1//24th kit was made by Marcelllo Figliozzi several years ago and is very good. Don't know if it would be available, PM me for his email. -

Are you interested in a model of that Maserati clone or a Maserati A6G? A Maserati A6G in 1/24 has been produced. I see no reason to make a model of the clone. -
