Notes and observations recorded by Hagerty staff.

Equipment

RHD. Full width windshield, silver painted Borrani wire wheels, drivers head fairing over covered fuel filler. Built as a 625 2.5 liter 4 cylinder and now powered by a 3 liter Ferrari 6 carburetor V 12. Raced by John von Neumann at two European hillclimbs (1st in one and 2nd in the other) before being shipped to California. Raced by von Neumann and Richie Ginther. Thoroughly documented history, 113 historic races since restoration by David McCarthy and Phil Reilly, twice shown at Pebble Beach. Comes with its original 625 LM engine once installed in Pete Lovelys Cooper F1. Historic race ready.

Market commentary

The possibilities for this Ferrari are pretty impressive. Kept the way it is it will continue to be a quick, rewarding vintage race car. But restored to its original engine, the hood rebuilt with the two bulges need to cover the tall engines cam covers and repainted in von Neumanns silver with maroon stripe livery it will be spectacular. At this price it better be, but it is arguably a much better value than a heavily reworked pontoon fender customer 250 TR.
