Hello Members!
I like bizarre Drogo style.One of the most beautiful Ferrari body created by him - I mean 330 P3/4. In the first photos are three models by Ilario - very rare. All this cars is one-off.



The red car is Ferrari 250 GTE Drogo s/n 2493GT - it is 250 GTE that received the elegant GTO-like Drogo bodywork from 0716 TR when that car was restored in 1980 to original pontoon-fendered configuration.
The golden car is 1969 Ferrari 330 GT Drogo s/n 7979GT -The "Navarro Special" produced in 1966 for Norbert Navarro second his drawing that lack italian beauty.
And the blue car is 1958 Ferrari 250 GT Drogo Siebenthal s/n 0977 GT and has all aluminium body.



The next two cars are very famous Ferrari 250 GT Drogo Speciale s/n 3445 GT this body fitted in 1965-1976 when 250 GTO was rebodied by Drogo in 1965. Wrecked in 1976 and subsequently returned to original GTO configuration. Drogo body fitted onto 2423 GT. This model made by S.H.M.R. (Super Hobby Modellismo Rovigo) shows us how to look original form. Dark blue model of BBR is Ferrari 250 GT Drogo Speciale (blue) s/n 2423 GT. Unknown chassis (may be 250 GTE) fitted with the Drogo body from 3445 GT in 1987 and engine number 2423 GT. Chassis restamped as "2423 GT" to match engine.



As you can see, a couple of decades are not very influenced by technology of resin models.


Another pair of models are the modified models of Remember.
The silver one is Ferrari 250 GT SWB Drogo s/n 2735GT in the race Martini Trophy '64 at Silverstone under the control of driver and the owner of the car Chris Kerrison. This is Stirling Moss 250 GT SWB with whom he raced in the season 1961.
The red car is Ferrari 250 GT SWB Drogo s/n 2053GT in the race 1000km Nurburgring '63 #59 with team Dernier / Langlois von Ophem. This car was rebuilt by Drogo in 1962, after accident during 1000km Nuerburgring 27 may 1962,and was destroyed in a crash during the 500km of Spa 17 may 1964.

Hi Andrey!
Nice models indeed.
Where are you from in Russia? I'm not far from Moscow. As I also collect 1/43 scale Ferraris it will interesting, I think, to contact. But your link to e-mail is not work unfortunately. So would you like to write me a few words to count43@mail.ru?

Regards
Vladimir
