About Hagerty’s condition ratingsClose

One of 40 250 GT SI Cabs, described as fitted with a later Ferrari-supplied new outside plug engine stamped 0761GT by Chinetti. First owned by Buck Fulp, later by Bob Donner who drove it 11 times in the Colorado Grand. Restored to high standards of fit and finish in 1975. Orderly but lightly aged underhood. Old undercoat has peeled and been painted over. A classy car that's had classy owners who looked after it properly and sympathetically.

Market commentary

How much does 'non-original engine' count? From this breathtaking result (for a car in no way ready for a top rank concours or Ferrari event) it would seem not to be much. On the other hand, the combination of the Series I Pf Cabriolet (a better trimmed Cal Spider) and an impressively benign history is a compelling inducement to spending generously.
