Description
Finished in BP racing green, the chassis 3767GT was originally owned by David Piper, a racing driver who competed in Formula 1 and Formula 2 and was chased by him, but he was disappointed with single-seater racing and decided to switch to sports car racing with the 250 GTO in 1962. By the end of the same year, he achieved outright victories in the 9-hour Kyalami race and the Angola Grand Prix.
At the beginning of the following season, this car was sold to the United States, although Piper still occasionally drove it with the new owner, Ed Cantrell. After a week of racing in Nassau in 1964, it was withdrawn from contemporary racing and in 1974, it was acquired by the current owner. In recent years, it has regularly appeared at Goodwood Revival. CMC replicated this 250 GTO with right-hand drive in the distinctive BP livery.
About the brand Classic Model Cars (CMC)
Stylish products combined with the highest quality finish make us think of the German brand Classic Model Cars. It’s a true homage to handcrafted products that impress with their unique elegance and luxury.
CMC is one of the leading companies producing miniature vintage cars. The company creates classic and collector’s models using authentic materials and fabrics.
Since 1995, CMC has had its own manufacturing facility with highly qualified engineers and staff in China. The result of months of research is a variety of classic car models, assembled by hand from over 1800 individual parts. The brand uses high-quality materials to fully preserve the “faithfulness to the original” of each vehicle model.
The company focuses on all major and popular collector scales: 1:12, 1:18, 1:24, 1:43. The first model produced by the company was in 1:24 scale — the iconic Mercedes-Benz SSK from 1930. It was built in 1995 and has won many prestigious awards.
Each component is carefully assembled by hand. Instruments on the dashboard are mounted separately. The seats are covered with fabric or leather. The floor mats are laid inside and in the trunk. The replicas replicate even the smallest details according to the original plans of the vehicle.
The combination of German quality standards and Chinese craftsmanship allows for the perfect representation of unique classic cars in unparalleled quality.
