JJ Lehto
Hamm3r of the gods
Visited childhood home and while rummaging through some of my old stuff I found my old Bburago 1:24 Ferrari 126C I had thought lost forever.
Although, if I'm not totally mistaken this is the 1981 126CK, which was driven by Villeneuve and Pironi eventhough it says Arnoux on the car. Suppose it was cheaper to print new stickers than build a new model.
I think it's in fairly good condition considering it was just laying in a random box with all kinds of random junk. For the pics I just wiped it clean from what little dust it had on it and polished off fingerprints. The steering axle is broken so no turning wheels from the steering wheel. It was just a flimsy piece of plastic to begin with and it broke early on. Can't tell from the pictures but the rear wing is also a bit skewed, but I can't remember if it's always been like that or if it's due to storing conditions.
Anyway, I was so overjoyed to found this little "gem" of mine I thought I'd share it with you guys
