The Prancing Stallion


The Ferrari Cavallino Rampante ( Prancing Stallion) was originally a symbol of the Italian fighting ace Francesco Baracca. After her son's death, Baracca's mother encouraged Enzo to adopt the symbol. It was first used by Ferrari's Scuderia Alfa Romeo in 1929. And later on the cars that would bear his name.

Spyder prototype # 6

Early prototype Spyders were built by Weinsberg Coachworks. 
This is the only prototype of this style.
This Spyder was known as the "Bucklwagen"
 because of the high firewall bulkhead.
