Maserati 250F Morocco/Italy 1958 Gerini by Jade Miniatures
Hand built available JAD43127M28 Morocco & JAD43127M40 Italy
In 1958 Scuderia Centro Sud had their 250F modified with a unique high tail and Gerino Gerini was entrusted with driving it. On the first outing at Monza he qualified at the back of the field and his race was over after three laps with engine failure! As the car was rather different there are plenty of photos available (many of which are included in the instructions) and Jade’s model, while not perfect, does a fair job of capturing the unique shape. The resin castings are extremely clean and have crisp panel engraving, the suspension is Jade’s usual simple fold up etch and there are decent wire wheels included. Overall a relatively simple build of an unusual subject.

About Jade Miniatures
A well established range of well thought out kits and hand built models of competition cars, mostly from the golden era of the 1950s and 60s. The kits are generally pretty simple with well cast resin bodies, small numbers of resin and white metal ancillaries and a modest amount of etch. In the case of open wheeled subjects, the etch usually includes most or all of the suspension. Hand builts generally well finished. Made in France.
