Ferrari 365P 1966 Chinetti by Tron

Hand built available BEE151B
Based on the chassis of a 365P2 endurance racer, just two examples of this novel three-seat mid-engined GT were built. The car seen here was the first, delivered to Luigi Chinetti of NART early in 1966, the second example coming a few months later for Fiat boss Gianni Agnelli. The Pininfarina styling is very similar to the Dino, launched the same year, but the wide body to accommodate the three-abreast seating and a clear roof panel help the car stand out. Tron offer two separate kits for the different chassis but could easily have included both versions in one as the only difference we can see is the inclusion of a plated casting for the large rear spoiler in the Agnelli car. This car was originally silver and then restored in red offering further options. The main castings in the kit will need a little careful clean-up, particularly around the recessed lips for the flush-fitting windows.
