The Courier of Enzo Ferrari

The 1950s and 1960s are known as an era that
witnessed a boom of race car transporters, which are being re-discovered today and held in a high regard. The two similar-looking transporters of the Scuderia Ferrari and Maserati might well be the most famous and technically most mature transporters of those days. They were mounted on Fiat-bus chassis of the type 642 RN2. With an open body work designed by Bartoletti, the resultant transporter was good for hauling three race cars.

Back in those days, it took a transporter to haul race cars to the race track from time to time. But transporters were not limited to hauling a precious freight only. They had quite a few other functions, too. In each of the transporters, a small but complete inspection bay was set up. It was also used as the crew quarters.

This was where the head-quarters were located, in addition to providing a crew space and a sleeping berth during the hectic race weekends.

    Understanding Scale

    The scale of a model is its size as a proportion to the real-life item. For instance, a 1:18 scale model means that every 1 unit of measurement on the model equals 18 units on the real item. If you divide the real item's size by 18, you'd get the size of the 1:18 model. Please note that models can vary slightly in size, as not all real-life items, like cars or planes, have the same dimensions.

    Model Cars:

    • 1:12 scale: ~38 cm or 15 inches
    • 1:18 scale: ~25 cm or 10 inches
    • 1:24 scale: ~18 cm or 7 inches
    • 1:43 scale: ~10 cm or 4 inches
    • 1:64 scale: ~7 cm or 2.75 inches
    • 1:76 scale: ~6 cm or 2.3 inches

    Model Trucks:

    • 1:12 scale: ~75 cm or 29.5 inches
    • 1:18 scale: ~50 cm or 19.7 inches
    • 1:24 scale: ~38 cm or 15 inches
    • 1:43 scale: ~21 cm or 8.3 inches
    • 1:64 scale: ~14 cm or 5.5 inches
