Ferrari 250 TR Aluminium Body Replica in the Workshop

For centuries, Italian artisans have created many of the most evocative and beautiful objects known to man. From the Renaissance period onwards, masterpieces were designed, painted and sculpted in Italy, that to this day transcend their mere presence as objects and evoke emotions that connect to the viewer on a personal level. The vast majority of these art objects are stationary; however, during a brief period in the 1950s, beauty and function connected in select Italian sports cars, transforming them into moving art. The 250 Testa Rossa and the 250 GTO Ferraris, represent the pinnacle of this era and are true masterpieces of moving sculpture. Never before or since has such an incredible combination of beauty and power led to as much on-track success and art-inspired emotion as these two superb creations by Sergio Scaglietti. They are perhaps the greatest expressions of automotive art to come out of Maranello in this period.
We have previously created several perfectly detailed models of the 250 TR and 250 GTO at 1:8 scale, but to fully honour the beauty of the bodies' forms, we have now created hand hammered aluminium replicas at a quarter the size of the original masterpieces. Our Aluminium Body Replicas celebrate the art of carrosserie and the very skilled process of panel-beating, fully expressing the artistry and raw beauty of the body. Each piece has been created from aluminium sheet by a skilled craftsman using traditional methodology, forming the panels with a hammer over a buck, exactly as the original full-size bodies were created by artists of the craft such as Scaglietti, Pininfarina, Touring and Zagato. The bucks over which each replica body is formed are machined using extremely accurate data, from digital scans of significant original cars. The investment in skilled man hours is significant, and so each piece will be made to order.

A film about how you each started in this industry and where and how you all gained the necessary skills required to become master craftsman and women would be so interesting and very useful for any person who would love to do this.

This is really amazing. What is the drawing source?

[@AmalgamCollection]

We already possessed detailed CAD information having digitally scanned an original car when developing a model at 1:8 scale. 😁 We used that as the basis, though there's even artistic interpretation involved in shaping our Body Replicas.

Ironically Ferrari did not use English Wheel to form the bodywork.
