Equipment
3,286/280hp V-12, 6 Weber carburetors, 5-speed, chrome spoke Borrani wire wheels, Michelin XWX tires, Carello halogen headlights, flared rear fenders.
Condition
#3 Good
Runs and drives well. Flaws not noticeable to passersby. Most common condition.
From the “Veloce, Schnell & Fast Collection” of a prominent former TV personality. Very good paint, good chrome. Lightly creased upholstery. Clean but unrestored underbody and chassis. Burnished wheel rims. Owned by Pirelli and used for tire testing 1966-68. Represented as the original engine. Restored in the late 80’s, FCA National Concours First in Class in 1991. Mellowing since then but still impressive.
Market commentary
This is a choice Ferrari and even at a bit over its pre-sale low estimate it’s not expensive despite the lack of Classiche documentation or a comprehensive history. This is a case of “do your homework” because Mecum doesn’t and buyers are on their own. In this case they reached a favorable conclusion and paid a realistic price.
