This is the Ferrari F1 Dino 246 #6 3rd 1958 French GP in 1:12 scale by GP Replicas.

Wolfgang von Trips piloted the Ferrari Dino 246 (#6) to a strong third-place finish at the 1958 French Grand Prix in Reims, contributing to a crucial double podium for Ferrari. Known for his daring yet precise driving, the young German aristocrat showcased his emerging talent by keeping pace with the fierce slipstream battles between Mike Hawthorn and Stirling Moss on the ultra-fast Reims circuit. What set this race apart was not only the blistering heat and relentless flat-out racing but also how von Trips’ measured performance helped reinforce Ferrari’s dominance that season, setting the stage for his future role as a team leader.

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.
