I think you are talking about the Berlinettas driven in the 1953 race
BBR styling models 29
these models are more than 20 years old now
for the age they are fantastic , good shape , proper built and still looking very fine
and nothing else on the market

I would go with the Starter/Record bodies or the BBR kits. The AMR kits are not as good, although you would not know that by the large prices people try to get for them. The Bosica kit's body is also trash, and that kit requires alot of work to make into a "Bosica quality" model:)

The BBR's are very nice and have a good shape but are also not perfect. I think they are the best models because of the photoetch window frames. They also did make kits of these cars but they are hard to find.

Thanks very much for the photo. It truly displays the nice/accurate shape of the car and the detail.
