General Overview

 For decades, astute collectors have sought Ferraris that can be driven enjoyably with friends and family members either for personal outings or as part of touring events hosted all over the world. During the 1960s, this same sentiment had allowed Ferrari to capture a larger market share with the addition of rear seating capacity accompanied by more luxurious driving amenities. Beginning with the successful 250 GTE, the 330 GT 2+2 followed in 1964, eventually succeeded by the 365 GT 2+2, Ferrari set a tradition of excellent four passenger touring cars. Debuting at the 1967 Paris Auto Show, the beautifully elongated Pininfarina body, influenced by the limited production 500 Superfast and Super Americas, featured dramatic front and rear overhangs, beautiful side glass, and handsome if not stately proportions. The 365 GT 2+2 not only offered impressive performance, it was a truly superlative grand touring car, capturing the hearts of sports car enthusiasts and the motoring press. With its 320 bhp 4.4 Liter V12 engine and five-speed gearbox, 0-60 times were achieved in a remarkable 7.0 seconds with a top speed of 150 mph. Girling four-wheel ventilated disc brakes, independent suspension all round, and Koni's hydro-pneumatic self-leveling suspension system (to aid in weight balancing for rear passengers), delivered engaging performance with refined driving manners. Interior noise and vibration were vastly improved using isolating rubber drive-line mounts and, with comfort amenities such as ZF variable ratio power-assisted steering, power windows, power wing windows, and air conditioning as standard equipment, blending comfort with performance became thoughtfully united in a Ferrari fit for royalty. Which is partly the impetus for the nickname these cars earned when first reviewed by Road & Track as the “Queen Mother of Ferraris”. With a wide track and increased trunk capacity, the 365 GT was larger than previous Ferraris, but its size did not diminish the performance capacity or nimble road characteristics so highly desired by Ferrari owners. 
History of this Ferrari According to the current owner and referenced in the book Ferrari Serial Numbers Part 1, this Ferrari was first sold to a Canadian buyer through the Ferrari dealer. As Canada had not yet converted to the metric system as their national standard, the car was built as a European version but fitted with US gauges. Reportedly delivered to the first owner in Canada, the car was imported to the US and retained by the second owner from 1980-2003, until it was sold to the prior owner. The current owner purchased the car https://bringatrailer.com/list... and offered it for sale the following year https://bringatrailer.com/list... Copies of service records accompanying this Ferrari date back to 1988 when it was located in Vermont where RPM rebuilt the engine, transmission and rear axle serviced, as ongoing service invoiced under the same owner continued through the 1990s. By 2001, service invoice #1644 indicates the car had logged 54,972 miles. In 2003, the car was serviced by the next owner, at Boston Sportscar, Weston, MA. In 2004, the mufflers were replaced, transmission synchros replaced, and new brake hoses were installed. Services continued at Ferrari of New England, Newton, MA including a new clutch assembly and flywheel along with a steering box installed in 2012 with 74,720 miles indicated as well as overhauling the pedal assembly in 2013. Recent work performed under current ownership provided by Grand Prix Motors, Campbell, CA includes annual fluid service and the installation of a set of new mufflers. 
General Condition 

Today this Ferrari presents in very nice overall condition featuring a smooth and glossy darker red finish. The paint was applied under prior ownership and while showing mild evidence of age, remains vivid and consistent. Under current ownership paint correction was professionally done and a protective ceramic coating was applied to the finish. The doors shut with a crisp latch and hold position flush to the body surfaces. The hood and trunk lids open and close properly also with excellent panel gaps. The chrome finishes are consistent and smooth with correct hardware, excellent window trim, and new rubber gaskets. The emblems and badges are all in excellent condition as are the glass and plastic lenses. The Borrani wire wheels are correctly refinished and wear a set of correct Michelin XWX 215/70 VR15 tires. The wheels are mounted with single hub chrome plated triple ear centers. 
The tan leather interior is believed to be original and has aged gracefully with some surfaces showing cracks in the leather and some rub-through on the driver’s seat piping, but otherwise consistent and supple to the touch. The front seats offer excellent support and correct seat stitching. The dashboard and instruments are beautifully maintained exhibiting excellent color, clarity, and bright contrasting numeric indication. The wood dashboard is in very nice condition, draping downward into the center console, which features secondary instruments, and a modern Alpine AM/FM CD stereo, air conditioning vents, and electric window switches both of which actuate smoothly up and down for both side windows. The five speed manual gear selector is readily at hand and a Nardi wood rim steering wheel is beautifully finished with a warm feel to the rim supported by an aluminum hub and triple spokes. The headliner, sun visors, and center console materials appear to be original. Throughout the interior, a range of delicate and refined switches, handles, and interior components have been addressed with thoughtful considerations preserving originality wherever possible. The trunk compartment is lined with black carpet and houses a full sized spare wheel stored under the trunk floor. Under the hood, the original matching numbers engine delivers a very satisfying visual impression, with correct factory finishes and strong visual presentation overall. Correct features include the proper hoses, lines, and correct fasteners, as well as correct air cleaner, proper black textured cam covers, and the original factory chassis plate. Outfitted with air conditioning from the factory, the AC system is functional but does not currently provide conditioned air to the cabin. The underside of the car is clean and well-tended with no visual evidence of structural compromise to the chassis floor, rocker panels, or main suspension mounting points. The recently replaced mufflers are correct replacement units with correct hangers and a beautiful set of ANSA quad exhausts exiting under the rear bumper. The car starts consistently warm or cold and idles smoothly at rest. Once seated in the driver’s seat, it’s evident why this series Ferrari has become the go-to vintage Ferrari for those who enjoy events with friends and family. Plenty of space for larger drivers, ample storage in the trunk, and a surprisingly roomy rear seat. Driving manners are quite nice with a bit more touring flavor to the driving experience. Braking is excellent overall with firm pedal pressure even when coming down from higher speeds. Best of all, the panoramic exterior view over the long hood, lovely array of Veglia gauges nestled in the beautiful wood faced dash, and the open roadway vanishing beneath the outstretched fenders creates a captivating driving experience. This Ferrari 365 GT 2+2 is a welcomed example of Ferrari performance and Pininfarina design exemplifying the front engine V12 designs so loved from the Enzo era. Ready for club events, concours shows, and enjoyable drives through beckoning mountain roads, this 365 GT 2+2 is poised to deliver the very best in Ferrari performance and luxury from an unrepeatable era of superlative motorcars.
