About the Ferrari 250 LM #21 M. Gregory / J. Rindt 24 Hours of Le Mans 1965 Bburago 1:18

TL;DR: Bburago's 1:18 diecast reproduces car #21, the Ferrari 250 LM driven by Masten Gregory and Jochen Rindt to outright victory at the 1965 24 Hours of Le Mans. Diecast construction with opening doors and bonnet keeps this historic subject at an accessible price. Ferrari's last outright Le Mans win for decades, captured in mass-market scale.

This is the specific car: chassis #21, the Ferrari 250 LM that carried Masten Gregory and Jochen Rindt to an outright win at Le Mans in 1965, a result Ferrari would not repeat for decades.

Bburago's Diecast Take on a Genuinely Historic Winner

Reproducing a specific race-winning livery carries more weight than a generic finish, and Bburago treats this #21 casting with the detail that subject deserves: the number and driver-era graphics sit cleanly on the doors, printed rather than applied, and the body colour matches the car's period appearance rather than a generic Ferrari red. The construction is Bburago's familiar formula, zinc-alloy diecast with opening doors and bonnet on simple hinges, wider panel gaps than a premium resin competitor would show, and a cabin that is simplified rather than finely detailed. None of that undermines the subject's appeal: for a car this historically significant, an accessible diecast at this price point is how the vast majority of collectors will ever own a version of it.

The 1965 Race and Ferrari's Last Outright Win

Masten Gregory, an experienced American endurance racer, and Jochen Rindt, then a rising talent who would later win the Formula 1 World Championship posthumously, shared the #21 North American Racing Team entry through the 1965 24 Hours of Le Mans. Their win came at a car that was never even meant to race as a prototype: Ferrari built the 250 LM hoping for GT homologation, but the FIA rejected the application over production numbers, forcing the mid-engined V12 into the prototype class instead. That outright victory turned out to be Ferrari's last at Le Mans for many years, a gap long enough that the result became one of the defining reference points in the marque's endurance racing history. Rindt's later fame in Formula 1 only adds to the car's standing among collectors who follow both eras of his career.

The Natural Centrepiece of a Le Mans Display

Of all the 250 LM liveries in a themed collection, this #21 is the one with a genuine, well-documented result behind it, the natural centrepiece for any Ferrari Le Mans display.
