1962 Ferrari 250 Burago 1:24

El Ferrari 250 GTO es un automóvil deportivo y de competición construido por Ferrari entre los años 1962 y 1964; es considerado como uno de los mejores automóviles de alto rendimiento construido y actualmente (2021), el más caro del mundo.

El número 250 hace referencia a la capacidad en centímetros cúbicos, de cada cilindro del motor. Las siglas GTO significan en italiano: "Gran Turismo Omologata" (Gran Turismo Homologado).

En 2004, la revista Sports Car International nombró al 250 GTO número 8 en la lista de "Mejores Automóviles Deportivos" de los años 1960, en la lista de los mejores automóviles deportivos de todos los tiempos. Del mismo modo, la revista Motor Trend Classic nombró al 250 GTO como número 1 en su lista de los "Grandes Ferraris de todos los tiempos".

Los Ferrari 250 GTO fueron diseñados para competir en la categoría GT. Eran una evolución ortodoxa de los Ferrari 250 GT SWB. El ingeniero Giotto Bizzarrini tomó el chasis del Ferrari 250 GT SWB y lo acopló con un motor V12 Colombo Tipo 168 Comp/62 de 2953 cm³ (3 litros) del Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa, con una potencia máxima de 300 CV (296 HP; 221 kW) a las 7500 rpm y 30 kg·m (294 N·m; 217 lb·pie) a las 5500 rpm de par máximo. Era un diseño completamente de aleación ligera que utilizaba un sistema de lubricación por cárter seco y seis carburadores de 2 gargantas Weber 38 DCN, con una relación de compresión de 9.7:1.

Sucesivamente, debido a problemas y desacuerdos internos dentro de Ferrari, el ingeniero Bizzarrini y otros ingenieros dejaron la casa, el desarrollo y terminación del proyecto GTO fue encargado al ingeniero Mauro Forghieri y al diseñador Sergio Scaglietti. La carrocería, ahora más ancha fue perfeccionada en las pruebas en el túnel y la pista de viento.

El resto del coche era una presentación equilibrada de la tecnología de Ferrari de los años 60. Contaba con un bastidor tubular soldado a mano, suspensión delantera de doble horquilla, frenos de disco y ruedas fabricadas por Borrani. La caja de cambios era de cinco velocidades y era un paso adelante realmente revolucionario.

El interior era austero hasta el extremo en el que un velocímetro no era considerado necesario para el tablero de instrumentos.

1932 Ford Sedan Delivery Johnny Lightning 1:24

De 1932 Ford Sedan Delivery Johnny Lightning escala 1:24 con chasis metálico.

The '32 Ford Delivery is based on designer Larry Wood's own car. Full-fendered with a V8 engine, this sedan was made to deliver in both speed and style.

The term 1932 Ford may refer to three models of automobile produced by Ford Motors between 1932 and 1934: the Model B, the Model 18, and the Model 40. These succeeded the Model A. The Model B had an updated four-cylinder engine and was available from 1932 to 1934. The V8 was available in the Model 18 in 1932, and in the Model 40 in 1933 & 1934. The 18 was the first Ford fitted with the flathead V-8. The company also replaced the Model AA truck with the Model BB, available with either the four- or eight-cylinder engine.

The three car models were replaced by the streamlined Model 48 in 1935 which used the same chassis as its predecessor. The 1937 Ford would be the last to use the old 1932 chassis until 1940 when the car line of Ford was completely redesigned.

1977 Jeep CJ7 Revell 1:25 MMI

From Wikipedia:

The Jeep CJ models are both a series and a range of small, open-bodied off-road vehicles and compact pickup trucks, built and sold by several successive incarnations of the Jeep automobile marque from 1945 to 1986. The 1945 Willys Jeep was the world's first mass-produced civilian four-wheel drive car.

In 1944, Willys-Overland, one of the two main manufacturers of the World War II military Jeep, built the first prototypes for a commercial version – the CJ, short for "civilian Jeep". From then on, all CJ Jeeps consistently had a separate body and frame, rigid live axles with leaf springs both front and rear, a tapering nose design with flared fenders, and a fold-flat windshield, and could be driven without doors. Also, with few exceptions, they had part-time four-wheel drive systems, with the choice of high and low gearing, and open bodies with removable hard or soft tops.

After remaining in production through a range of model numbers, and several corporate parents, the Jeep CJ line was officially ended in 1986. More than 1.5 million CJ Jeeps were built, having continued the same basic body style for 45 years since the Jeep first appeared. Widely regarded as "America's workhorse", the CJs have been described as "probably the most successful utility vehicle ever made." American Motors VP Joseph Cappy said the end of "CJ production will signal an end of a very important era in Jeep history." The Jeep CJ-7 was replaced in 1987 by the similar-looking Jeep Wrangler.

The similar model, the DJ "Dispatcher" was introduced in 1956 as a two-wheel drive version with open, fabric, or a closed steel body in both left- and right-hand drives for hotel, resort, police, and later United States Postal Service markets.

1993 Pontiac Firebird AMT 1:25 Trans Am

From Wikipedia:

The Pontiac Firebird is an American automobile that was built and produced by Pontiac from the 1967 to 2002 model years. Designed as a pony car to compete with the Ford Mustang and Mercury Cougar, it was introduced on February 23, 1967, simultaneous with GM's Chevrolet division platform-sharing Camaro. This also coincided with the release of the 1967 Mercury Cougar, Ford's upscale, platform-sharing version of the Mustang.

The name "Firebird" was also previously used by GM for the General Motors Firebird in the 1950s and early 1960s concept cars.

The fourth-generation Firebird amplified the aerodynamic styling initiated by the previous generation. While the live rear axle and floorpan aft of the front seats remained largely the same, ninety percent of the Firebird's parts were all-new. Overall, the styling of the Firebird more strongly reflected the Banshee IV concept car than the 1991 "facelift" did. As with the Camaro, major improvements included standard dual airbags, four-wheel anti-lock brakes, 16-inch wheels, rack-and-pinion power steering, short/long-arm front suspension, and several non-rusting composite body panels. Throughout its fourth generation, trim levels included the V6-powered Firebird, V8-powered Formula, and Trans Am. Standard manual transmissions were the T5 five-speed manual for the V6s, Borg-Warner′s T56 six-speed manual for the V8s. The 4L60 four-speed automatic was optional for both in 1993, becoming the 4L60E with built-in electronic controls in 1994.
