Description

I’ve to admit, I’ve a personal crush for historical races and live not to far Monza, it helps also.

In the Historical F1 races you can very easily walkin’ the pit area and boxes, having a chat with the drivers, which are, normally, more than ready to share stories over their cars.

I had the feeling that some driver might like to have some fun in an “old style”.

Years ago, Manuel Laguatan in the USA, had a similar idea, using the F104.

We move a bit further the concept.

With a bespoke made chassis, properly 250mm scaled wheelbase and a “cigar” shaped full body, that allow to be driven in any given condition. Of course… no wings at all… as used in the ’60…

Was a winter project for 2018, a nice challenge as well, which required a bit “out of the box” approach.

By late springtime, early summer both the prototypes, chassis and body were ready…

Classique was born!
