Ferrari 250GT Lusso Proto 1962 Restored by RGM Design
Alternative version RGMCAR039A Yellow
The prototype for Ferrari’s 250 GT Lusso first appeared in 1962 and period images show that it was originally finished in pale yellow. The car has been repainted a number of times (the first very early on) and the model is based upon its appearance at the 1998 Nurburgring Old-timer Meeting, at which time it was silver. There are subtle changes from the final production cars, most noticeable the lack of fog lamps either side of the grille giving a much cleaner look to the front end. The model is cleanly built and well proportioned, but the grain on the silver paint is a little heavy in places beneath the super-smooth clear lacquer.
