This scaled-down 312 F1 Grand Prix is an extraordinarily rare find. Built by Italy Car and Motor Pony in Bologna to commemorate Niki Lauda’s 1976 F1 Ferrari, it is believed that only four to five of these cars were produced. The car is powered by a two-stroke 60 cc gasoline engine with two forward speeds plus reverse. It has hydraulic disc brakes, four-wheel independent coil-over suspension, electric starter, alloy wheels, racing slicks, and seat belts, and it may be capable of 60 km/h. This is an astonishing collector’s item.
