Details
Pre-, even- and odd-numbered cars tipo 125, 159 and 166; very all-encompassing history about the very first cars produced by Ferrari; history per chassis number; history of very first racing. Interviews with, and statements from, Colombo, Busso, Lampredi, Bianchi, Anderloni and Cortese ensure that the full story of the 166's birth and its controversial design team is told in a depth never before attempted. As well as a colour section, this book has many superb black and white line drawings and photographs which are comtemporary with the car and which have not generally been seen before. In short this is the definitive book on the Tipo 166 and the people who designed it. If you like Ferraris, you will find the story of the car which started the great thoroughbred line absolutely fascinating. A must for a good library.
