Huge hardback in slip case charting the design and racing history, and finally recreation in recent years of the 1961-63 Ferrari V6 F1 and sports racing cars which featured the distinctive twin-nostril 'shark nose' radiator intake.
Driven Phil Hill, Von Tripps, Rodriguex, Mairesse, Bandini and a host of other top names of the era , the F1 car won the 1961 world title and the sports car won Le Mans and events like the Targa Florio, Sebring and Nurburgring 1000kms.
This detailed book recounts it all with the most wonderful selection of photos, many in colour, of a glamorous era in motor racing.
As all the F1 cars were cut up by Ferrari , none survived and the final chapter recounts the recreations made by Jim Stokes using many original components and which are now often seen at Goodwood and other historic events.
