CMC Diecast 1:18 Ferrari Testa Rossa Ltd. Two Versions 1) May we introduce “ Lucybelle” to you? That is the name by which the Testa Rossa with the chassis number 0732 first came to be known in its good old days. The owner Ed Hugus was an American, who decided to have the car painted in American racing white with double blue stripes. Admittedly, that appearance was unusual for a Ferrari. But take a look for yourself: Isn’t it strikingly beautiful? This is why we build a high-end miniature replica after it, limited to 5, 000 pieces worldwide. One of Lucybelle’s racing highlights was a 7th rank at the famous 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1958, where it had the starting number 22. The drivers Ed Hugus & Ernie Erickson won their spot by competing triumphantly against a large number of tough competitors. Our model represents the current status of the car. Version 2) Chassis No. 0714 went into the manufacturing of the second Testa Rossa, which was earmarked for Mr. Piere Drogo, a gentleman from Venezuela. In early December 1957, the new car was delivered to him in Modena, Italy. He intended to pilot it in as many races as possible. One of the modifications he made was to install an additional air inlet underneath the doors so as to improve the cooling of the rear wheel drum brakes. His first race took place in Buenos Aires, Argentina in January 1958. Since then, more than half a century has passed. In the course of time, Testa Rossa (meaning “ Red Head” in English) became a most successful & best-known Ferrari model of all time. Perfectly restored & painted in deep black with a flamboyant red/white border on its nose, the car with the starting No. DM124 was offered at “ Leggenda e Passione, ” an auction that took place in Maranello, Italy in May 2009. The bidding went as high as 9.02 million Euros, & the car changed hands. Is there better proof that the fascination with Testa Rossa is still going strong? Please enjoy this CMC model which is replicated true to the original. & this one is affordable to you. ****PLEASE EMAIL OR RING TO CHECK AVAILABILITY. TEL: 0870 241 2829.**** ...

CMC Diecast 1:18 scale model Marerati 250F 1957. True to the scale & perfect in form display of the body in high-class painting. Realistic design of the front & rear wheel suspension with springing. Accurate cabelling & pipe installation. Quick opening device for the racing cars nose & the engine compartment side plates. made from stainless steel bolts & protected with steel wire (parts are not removable). 90 years of Maserati: reason enough for CMC to concern themselves closer with that brand which is without a doubt one of the Italian racing car manufacturers with the most venerable history. CMC decided to appreciate this birthday with a replication of the 250 F. After all this racing car is called the most beautiful Monoposto who ever hit the racetrack. Also was the year 1957 doubtless one of the distinguished & eventfulliest of the company’s history. Back then at the 4th of August, more than 200.000 people watched the start of the Grand Prix of the century at the Nürburgring. After a acrimonious fight with his both biggest rivals Mike Hawthorn & Peter Collins, both driving the Ferrari 801 F1, Juan Manuel Fangio was able to celebrate with his lightweight constructed Maserati 250 F & only with a head start of 3.6 seconds one of his largest triumphs. Because with that terrific victory Fangio conquered his 5th world championship title & became a legend of racing car history, & so did the 250 F. The full metal model is made from 1, 387 single handmounted parts. & as we show you here, we focused our attention not only at the body. Also the “inner life” of the model was build with the highest possible level of details. Even if some of the parts are invisible for your eyes after the assembling – just like the original. ****PLEASE EMAIL OR RING TO CHECK AVAILABILITY. DUE TO ARRIVE 2010. TEL: 0870 241 2829.**** ...

CMC Diecast 1:18 Maserati Birdcage Tipo 61 1960. A charmingly graceful body designed by the mastermind Giulio Alfieri, who integrated a light frame of barely 30kg with more than 200 single pieces of tube. Because of this engineering innovation, the Maserati Tipo 60/61 acquired the legendary nickname “ Birdcage”. Only 23 units were made during the years from 1959 through 1961. The American Lucky Casner was one of the most successful owners of the Birdcage Tipo 61. In May 1960, Stirling Moss & Dan Gurney won the 1, 000-km race of Nürburg-ring. With the starting number 5, they accomplished an outstanding victory in the pouring rain against keen competition. Only one year later the Camoradi Team (Casner Motor Racing Division) repeated the winning record with Casner & Gregory as the drivers. These consecutive victories added new glory to Maserati & sustained its everlasting top position in the illustrious circle of racing car manufacturers. Our model is composed of 1, 140 single parts, 507 of which are made from stainless steel, copper, & brass. This model is an exact replica of the winning car of Moss/ Gurney. What is extraordinary about its build is the adherence of its body to a cage-like framework as if it were a second skin. While looking at the exact details of this model, you are likely to feel transported back to the adventurous experience of racing in old times. ****PLEASE EMAIL OR RING TO CHECK AVAILABILITY.

CMC Diecast 1:18 Mercedes 300SLR Uhlenhaut Coupe 1955. Of the nine W196s chassis built, one was destroyed in the Le Mans disaster. Of the eight that remained (and prior to the accident) Mercedes motorsport chief Rudolf Uhlenhaut had ordered two to be set aside for modification into a sort of hybrid between the SLR & the SL, featuring a slightly widened version of the SLR's chassis with enclosed bodywork for aerodynamic purposes. Again, the strong, high sill beams of the spaceframe required the fitment of the same famous 'gull-wing' top-hinged doors of the other two types. For testing, & in preparation for a possible Mercedes participation in the 1956 race season, two road-legal SLRs were built. Due to Mercedes' planned withdrawal from competitive motorsport at the end of 1955, the programme was abandoned, leaving Uhlenhaut to use one of the cars as a company car. This prolonged road use required the fitting of an extra suitcase-sized muffler to the near-unsilenced exhaust pipes to avoid arrest for breach of the peace. This Uhlenhaut Coupé was regarded as the world's fastest car in the 1950s, & it is rumoured that, running late for a meeting, Uhlenhaut exploited the unlimited autobahns to make today's two-&-a-half-hour journey from Munich to Stuttgart in just over an hour. ****PLEASE EMAIL OR RING TO CHECK AVAILABILITY.
