This is the case where I try to show the development of Ferrari prototype and GT racing cars. For no particular reason they run chronologically from lower right to upper left

I have eleven more Ferrari models but they are mixed into my F-1 shelves and stacks, my Scuderia Filipinetti shelf and one on my Penske shelf.

I did have a coupe of big holes I wanted filled - the 330 P3 and the 275 GTB and I got those this year. I was going to scrap my custom Jouef 330 P3 but I felt it didn't look half bad next to the BBR model I just got so I'm keeping it on the shelf - even if it is just as a conversation piece

I'd like to get a better model of the 275 GTB but until I can get one of the BBR or CMC models for something around $200.00 I'll stay with the CMR

It's like reading a 3D Cliff's Notes of sports car racing! Fabulous!

Thanks Dennis and Marlowe everybody has a different reason for why and what they collect just as we all have different ways of maintaining it. I enjoy displaying what I have and, at least to a degree, telling a story with it.
