Vin F102BB20747

We're excited to bring to market one of the most compelling “lost and found” Ferraris we've come across. An early 1977 Ferrari 512 Berlinetta Boxer, chassis 20747, discovered sitting in static storage in a Palm Beach garage. This early, carbureted 512 BB is 1 of only 929 examples produced and stands out immediately for its stunning Blu Chiaro over Cuoio specification — a rare, elegant combination seldom seen on Boxers. Delivered new in Europe and showing its original kilometer instruments, the car also carries genuine period racing history, documented through an incredible archival photo set from the early 1980s showing the car actively campaigned at events throughout the Netherlands and Belgium. This archive can be found on the Netherlands 512bb registry archive. Later in its life, #20747 became part of the private collection of Frits Kroymans, the longtime official Ferrari importer for the Netherlands and one of Europe's most respected Ferrari collectors. Kroymans' stable famously included blue-chip icons such as a 250 GTO, 250 Testa Rossa, and numerous significant competition Ferraris — making his ownership a meaningful piece of provenance for any car that passed through his hands. When the Kroymans Collection was dispersed, this Boxer quietly made its way to the United States, eventually landing in a Palm Beach garage where it remained tucked away and largely forgotten — preserved, untouched, and waiting for its next chapter. As found the car has some service and cosmetic needs. It starts and runs but will need a full inspection and service prior to road use. Cosmetically the dash has shrinkage and pulling and the paint has blemishes throughout. The rocker panels have corrosion on the bottom corners that will need to be addressed while the underside is nicely detailed and shows as a solid original example. Notably the rear fenders were flared to accommodate for wider Campagnolo wheels in its racing days. The original set of wheels are also included with the sale. Today, it emerges as a true analog icon: a carbureted flat-12 Ferrari in a rare colorway, with European provenance, photo documented period racing histoy, and former residence in one of Europe's most serious Ferrari collections.
