Patrice de Conto 1958 Ferrari TR58 #14 Le Mans winner

Fabulous very rare hand built model

Patrice de Conto 1:8 scale 1958 Ferrari TR58 #14 Le Mans winner as driven by Phil Hill and Olivier Glendebien. Chassis number 0728. The first of three Le Mans wins for this driver pairing.

Patrice de Conto made arguably the finest scale model racing cars ever made, with over 1500 hand made parts, including individually made spokes and 600 parts in the wheels alone, taking over 150 hours to build, the attention to detail is incredible. The research of the car meticulous and every part of the model has been made exactly as it would have looked on the real car. Built around 20 years ago this is a pre owned model.

A 'kerbside' model measuring approx. two feet in length, the model its on a bespoke base, made to look like the road surface of the period with a gloss black edge, Patrice de Conto and Minidelta gold etching at the end. The model comes with a perspex display cover. Produced in very small number, there are probably no more than 20 that have been made, very rarely coming up for sale and are no longer being made. Patrice de Conto has captured the feel and beauty of this Ferrari in an incredible way.
