Equipment
2,953cc/240hp V-12, 4-speed, overdrive, Dunlop disc brakes, chrome spoke Borrani wire wheels, Michelin X tires, Pianola AM-FM radio, Marchal headlights, unrestored hardtop.
Condition
Represented as the matching numbers engine (internal # 498F) and documented with a copy of the Ferrari build sheet (but not Ferrari Classiche certified.) Restored in the early Naughts with very good paint, chrome and interior with only slight stretch and moderate creasing. Very good chrome. There are some paint flaws, particularly over the left headlight. The underbody is nearly like new. From the featured Ferrari Spider Collection.
Market commentary
Unlike the first series of 250 GT Pinin Farina cabriolets, which were competitive on track and a variation on the Tour de France, the later Series II Pinin Farina cabriolets were more sedate road cars based upon the series production 250 GT Pinin Farina coupe. They're valued at a quarter or so of the Series I cabriolets which is borne out by this good but not outstanding example's result, including a modest bump from the rare (but unrestored) hardtop.
