Equipment
1985/170hp four, 4-speed, painted Borrani wire wheels, Dunlop Racing tires, tonneau cover, woodrim steering wheel, Veglia gauges.
Condition
One of 14 Pinin Farina-bodied cars. Raced in period at Spa and Zandvoort. Matching numbers drivetrain. Tidy underneath but has some dirt in the wheel spokes. Good paint. A few very shallow dents in the body ahead of the windshield. Lightly aged interior. In current condition it's ideal for racing, and it has already been accepted to 1000 Miglia events. Any 1950s racing Ferrari is a significant, special car, and even the four-cylinder models have long since been recognized for their important place in the company's history.
Market commentary
RM Sotheby's sold a pile of twisted metal that used to be a 500 Mondial for $1.875M in Monterey last year. Once its long restoration is finished, it will look something like this car, which is already running and ready to race.
