1970 Ferrari 512S Long Tail by CMR, this is a resin model so no opening doors or engine cover. I am not a fan of resin models but this one is a well done example by CMR. The tires do roll but do not turn.

Great looking model, I have the same one. Unfortunately, nobody has done a full-opening version of the Long Tail. The short tails were done by Hot Wheels Elite (#55 below) & are excellent fully opening & detailed models.

@gavin Actually GMP did a diecast opening model of this car. They were limited to I think 499 pieces and are very hard to find today, I can't find one online right now but if you find one they will be expensive.

"Limited" is right. I don't remember this one at all. I don't collect racers like this, but it does look pretty cool. 😎

@john3976...you're completely right. I totally forgot about that one. I would have loved one in the Hot Wheels Elite price bracket.
