CMC M-250 1/18 Ferrari 250 GTO #153 RHD David Piper 1962 Tour de France LE 2000
Description
Chassis 3767GT, finished in BP racing green, originally belonged to David Piper, a Formula 1 and Formula 2 racing driver. When he no longer felt like driving single-seaters, he decided to enter the sports car class with the 250 GTO in 1962. At the end of the year, he achieved overall victories at the 9 Hours of Kyalami and the Grand Prix of Angola. At the beginning of the following season, the car was sold in the United States, although Piper occasionally continued to race with the new owner, Ed Cantrell. After the 1964 Nassau Speed Week, the vehicle no longer participated in contemporary motorsport and was acquired by the current owner in 1974. In recent years, it has regularly appeared at the Goodwood Revival.
Not suitable for children under 14 years of age. May contain small and sharp parts
CMC replicates this 250 GTO with an unmistakable BP livery. This is what chassis 3767GT looked like when David Piper and Dan Margulies drove it to 4th overall at the Tour de France on September 15, 1962, carrying race number #153.
