Equipment
Covered headlights, chrome rocker panels, chrome spoke Borrani wire wheels, blackwall tires, factory hardtop and soft top. One of six bodied by Pininfarina, the only one with covered headlights from new. Displayed at Geneva and New York shows, then taken to Bonneville by J.A. Stallings and clocked at 145 mph (photos and original time sheets included). Later owned by Bob Grossman, restored by Fantuzzi for Charles Robert, then re restored by Patrick Ottis in the U.S. in the current colors. Winner of Platinum at Cavallino and featured in Cavallino magazine in 2009, then displayed at Pebble Beach (3rd in class). Full tool roll. Beyond perfect (including a deduction at Pebble Beach for too shiny paint.)
Market commentary
Apparently the shine worked to this Ferraris advantage in Monaco, bringing an exceptional price 20 25% above expectations. Still, compared to a 250 GT California Spider it is a lot of car and more unusual, to say nothing of being exquisitely presented and beyond perfect ... but still accurate.
