# Ferrari 512 BB LM N.A.R.T. No. 64 Delaunay Grandet Henn 24h Le Mans 1979 Tecnomodel 1:18

> A Tecnomodel resin 1:18 scale model car reproducing N.A.R.T.'s No. 64 Ferrari 512 BB LM from the 1979 24 Hours of Le Mans, with Delaunay, Grandet and Henn sharing the drive.

The 512 BB LM was a purpose-built endurance racer derived from the 512 BB road car. Among the most evocative of the type's Le Mans appearances is the No. 64 entry submitted by the North American Racing Team in June 1979, wearing a red body with white and blue accents that spoke to both the team's American roots and Ferrari's competition pedigree.

## The Ferrari 512 BB LM: Michelotto's Endurance Weapon

The 512 BB LM retained the road car's flat-12 Boxer engine tuned for racing duty. Michelotto's conversion added a longer tail, wider wheel arches and revised aerodynamics on a tubular steel chassis. The result was one of the most competitive GT-class entries Ferrari fielded in late-1970s endurance racing, appearing at Le Mans, Daytona and Sebring in the hands of customer teams across three seasons.

## N.A.R.T., Car No. 64 and the 1979 Le Mans Field

The North American Racing Team was founded by Luigi Chinetti, Ferrari's long-standing US importer, and served as the primary channel for Ferrari factory support in North American and international endurance racing from the late 1950s onward. At Le Mans on 9–10 June 1979, N.A.R.T. entered the No. 64 512 BB LM with Jean-Pierre Delaunay, Cyril Grandet and Preston Henn sharing the drive. The car did not finish, but the entry remains a clearly defined and historically grounded moment in the N.A.R.T. story.

## Tecnomodel's 1:18 Resin Scale Model

This 1:18 rendering of the No. 64 N.A.R.T. 512 BB LM reproduces the red, white and blue race livery carried at the 1979 24 Hours of Le Mans. Resin construction allows for the capture of the extended rear bodywork and wider arches that distinguish the LM from the standard 512 BB, details that are difficult to achieve accurately at this scale in diecast.
