Ferrari 612 Can-Am Watkins 1969 #16 3rd Place Chris Amon in 1:43 scale
This is the Ferrari 612 Can-Am Watkins 1969 #16 3rd Place Chris Amon in 1:43 scale by Tecnomodel.
The Ferrari 612 Can‑Am #16, driven by Chris Amon, secured a strong 3rd‑place finish in the July 13, 1969, Can‑Am race at Watkins Glen. Amon, the highly skilled New Zealand driver known for his fearless style, piloted the 612P — a purpose‑built Ferrari prototype powered by a 6.2‑liter V12. Against the dominant McLarens of Bruce McLaren and Denny Hulme, Amon's third place was a major achievement, particularly because Ferrari’s program was lightly supported and beset by reliability issues. The 612’s smooth, wingless body and high‑revving V12 made it a standout car in the brutal Group 7 series. This podium highlighted Ferrari’s determination to challenge the established Can‑Am powers, even with limited factory backing.
Excellent quality and finish. Beautifully crafted and exquisitely detailed. Models are hand
painted, decorated and assembled. Beautiful detail and accuracy of shape and scale. Photo
etched parts, die-cutting, tampo printing and waterslide decals are also used. Each model
comes with its own acrylic display case.
