This is true passion for LEGO and for cars. Creator and MOCer bobalexander! has surely achieved one of the most detailed LEGO models to date, recreating the phenomenal Ferrari 330 P4 from 1967.
According to HowStuffWorks, "it would come to be considered by many the greatest Ferrari endurance race car. The P4 looked nearly identical to the 330 P3, but had some significant mechanical changes. The engine block was strengthened, the heads got three valves per cylinder instead of two, and the fuel-injection pipes were re-positioned."
As other Ferrari cars, this one was destined to be an instant winner.
"The Ferrari 330 P4 underwent a number of days testing at Daytona, and the preparation paid off. In the season’s first race at the Florida track, Amon teamed with Lorenzo Bandini to win the 24 Hours. Another P4 was second, and a Ferrari 412 P was third. A Ford GT40 won at Sebring, then P4s finished 1-2 at Monza, Amon and Bandini again the victors. Le Mans went to a GT40, but P4s ran 2-3. It was another donnybrook of a season, but this time Ferrari emerged on top to recapture the prototypes world title."
The creator not just did an amazing job with the outside / chassis, but also took the time to carefully recreate and detail as much as he could the entire engine. Check the pictures below and be prepared to be amazed by this magnificent Italian stallion!
