Ferrari 512S Le Mans 1970 #8 Merzario/Regazzoni by Marsh Models
Kit available MM298 Alternative versions MM298M6 #6 Giunti/Vaccarella & MM298M7 #7 Bell/Peterson
Ferrari's entry for the 1970 Le Mans race was one of the strongest ever seen a dozen 512s taking the start split between the factory (4 cars) and several private teams. This is one of the factory machines and, like so many of the grid in a rain hit event, it failed to finish, Regazzoni crashing as the rains came a couple of hours in. Marsh's hand built model is finished to the customary very high standard and matches photos from the beginning of the race well. The castings are crisp, there are plenty of fine details and the model is from an edition of 100 numbered pieces.
