This is the Alfa Romeo Giulia 1600 Sprint GTA 1966 Sebring Driver: J. Rindt Car # 36 in 1:43 scale by Tecnomodel.

In the 1966 Sebring 12 Hours, Jochen Rindt drove the Alfa Romeo Giulia 1600 Sprint GTA, competing in one of the most prestigious endurance races of the year. The Alfa Romeo Giulia 1600 Sprint GTA, with its lightweight design and tuned 1.6L engine, was a formidable machine in the production car category, offering a perfect balance of agility and speed on the demanding Sebring circuit. Rindt, known for his finesse and speed, had already established himself as a rising star in motorsport, and his performance in Sebring helped cement his reputation as a skilled endurance racer. The 1966 season was unique for the increasing importance of endurance racing, with manufacturers like Alfa Romeo entering the fray with production-based models like the GTA, creating a dynamic field that saw smaller, more nimble cars challenging more powerful rivals. The race at Sebring was a critical event in the early career of Rindt, who would go on to achieve even greater success in Formula 1, including a posthumous World Championship.
