Belgian '58 Ferrari Testarosa 250


curt raitz

Recommended Posts

While searching for different variations on the Testarosa 250, I came across this car and decided to build it. Don't know who drove the car or what races it raced in...

Built straight out of the box using an old set of Umi decals for the numbers

Paint is Tamiya TS-16 Yellow - cleared over with MM Ultra Glos Clearcoat

did not encounter problems with putting body on the chassis.

Was a fun build and probably will turn it up a notch or two on the next one

Please excuse the photos... my trusty Olympus SP-320 died - so used the kidz camera

Real nice build there, I haven't even picked this kit up yet.

I'm thinking this might have been shot at Le Mans. You know it's a helluva grueling race if you can be 26 laps behind the leader and still come in 6th.......now THAT is racing.

Here's the same car about 3 years ago.......

Nice work.

Boy I wish I could get some free time to work on mine.

The car finished 6th in the 58' LeMans race. It was driven by Jean Beurlys and Alain de Changy and was 26 laps back of the winner.

thanx, I had some info on the car...but couldn't locate it or remember it, but figured someone on the forum would know
