Ferrari 250 GT California Spider

Hello all,

In 1959 and 1960 the american racing team -NART - take part at Le Mans using the spider version of the 250 series.
The french manufacturer -PSK- developed a kit.
This kit contains the long wheel body showing the design of the coachwork of the 1960 series 2 cars.
I did a little -conversion- because in 1959 series 1 cars run on LWB chassis (2600mm); 1960 the series 2 cars uses the short wheel base (2400mm)
Therefore I decided to do some modifications at the mould to obtain right coachwork on right wheelbase.

see the coachwork differences:

1959 series 1 version LWB

1960 series 2 version SWB

some modifications on the front/head lamp/fender


I would like to do a tri-dimensional cockpit insert. Therefore motorposition is like the original on frontposition/rear wheel drive.




model before final paint work.


the result











very best wishes
claus
