Maserati 300S replica, Rolling Chassis, 1956

This model depicts the chassis and internal structure of the legendary racing sports car Maserati 300S. After removing the body shell, you can see the lightweight tubular space frame construction and other structural elements that highlight the model's craftsmanship at its finest. One of the main attractions of the Maserati 300S was its victory in the 1000 km endurance race at Nürburgring in 1956. Competitors such as Ferrari, Jaguar, and Aston Martin simply had no chance in that race.

With the body shell removed, an so-called rolling chassis is revealed. This rolling chassis provides an insightful view of the delicate tubular space frame, wheel suspension systems, and drivetrain, including the engine and transaxle (rear axle transmission). You will also find the cooling system with an oil cooling line, gas and oil tanks made from stainless steel sheet, and fine cockpit details, which are decorated with an original dashboard and seats covered in real leather.

This masterpiece of model building is complemented by an authentic reproduction of the chassis on which the body rests.
