I really like these bug eyed Ferraris!

And check out how small the prancing horse is in the grills of the Kess and Ilario models are....the Matrix did not add one on their 330 and I wonder if the real car had one (Harv?)

The images become clearer if you click on them for the enlargement view.

1963 Le Mans car? - looks like it did not have a Horse Grill:

Neither did #12:  https://www.supercars.net/blog/1963-ferrari-330-lm-berlinetta/

 

Those wire wheels are great!  On all three of them!

The BBR model does have the horse grille and no hood-mounted bug deflector. I suspect BBR based theirs on a restored car, which may or may not be the actual LM entry, which was RHD.

The LHD Gurney/Bridgehampton car lacks the horse.
