This is the Ferrari 330 P3 No. 20 Le Mans 24H 1966 M. Parkes/ L. Scarfiotti in 1:18 scale by Looksmart.

The Ferrari 330 P3 No. 20 was entered by Ferrari for the 1966 24 Hours of Le Mans, driven by factory stars Mike Parkes and Ludovico Scarfiotti. Parkes was a talented British driver-engineer whose technical knowledge made him an important member of Ferrari’s sports-car program, while Scarfiotti was an accomplished Italian racer who won the 1966 Italian Grand Prix for Ferrari. The 330 P3 represented Ferrari’s latest generation of mid-engine prototypes, featuring a lightweight tubular chassis, advanced suspension, and a spectacular 4.0-liter V12 producing approximately 420–430 hp. Its distinctive P3 bodywork, with a low nose, integrated aerodynamic contours, and dramatic rear treatment, was designed specifically for the high-speed demands of Le Mans. Although the No. 20 retired with an engine failure, the 330 P3 remains famous as Ferrari’s weapon in the intense 1966 Ferrari-Ford endurance rivalry and as a direct predecessor to the legendary 330 P4.

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
