Bridging the gap between Ferraris 288 GTO and the F40, the 288 GTO Evoluzione is a seldom seen and highly significant part of Ferrari’s history. In the mid-1980s, Group B in particular was taking the world by storm, even competing with Formula 1 in terms of global popularity. Numerous manufacturers took part in the World Rally Championship including Audi, Lancia, and Peugeot, with Ferrari keen to enter the fray, but Group B sports car racing continued to be dominated by BMW’s M1. Following input and authorization from Enzo Ferrari, an application was submitted by Ferrari SpA via the Automobile Club Italia for Group B homologation of the 288 GTO. The criteria for acceptance was that the manufacturer was required to produce a minimum of 200 variants of the subject vehicle. On June 1, 1985, having cranked the Factory assembly lines at full speed to complete the required amount of road production cars, the FIA formally approved Ferrari’s application. As an annex to the model homologation, the FIA allowed manufacturers to build a minimum number of 20 Evolution models (per year if required) and this primarily allowed for additional scope and improvement in respect of aerodynamic and engine displacement enhancements. Construction was already under way on several of the competition versions that were quite some departure from the ‘standard’ 288 GTO. Predictably named the Ferrari 288 GTO Evoluzione, sadly their development was never fated to see Group B competition as the entire formula was annulled from top line motorsport in 1986 following a sequence of unfortunate accidents during that season. By early 1987 only five of these ultimate competition versions of the iconic supercar had been built and further production ceased. Taking the concept one step further, the 288 GTO Evoluzione became even more race-focused with the help of Michelotto, and the 288 GTO Evoluzione was reputably intended to be used for tarmac events within Group B in the hands of privateers. It’s fair to say it may have been several steps too far for rallying however an on-track showdown against the magnificent Porsche 961 at Le Mans was sadly not to be. Pininfarina reworked the cars bodywork using Kevlar and fiberglass to reduce weight as much as possible, and the car’s rear wing was made of carbon fibre. Fitted with larger turbos and further refined engine tuning, the car’s Tipo F114 CK engine produced a monstrous 650 bhp, an increase of over 60% from the road car’s 400 bhp. Tipping the scales at just 940 kg, performance was truly astounding with top straight-line speed published to be 229.9 mph. The 288 GTO Evoluzione has a power to weight ratio of 1.61 Kg which would out perform any rival in this period. While this incredible car never saw competition, the 288 GTO Evoluzione proved pivotal as a test bed for developing the F40, Ferrari’s next in line, and arguably most visually iconic, in their supercar series. Place the two side by side and the resemblance is instantly apparent and is more than just skin deep. Chassis number 79888 is the fourth of five remaining 288 GTO Evoluzione’s built. Production on the car took place in Maranello with assistance from Michelotto in Padova, and the car was officially completed in 1988. In December of 1988 the car was sold through Jacques Swaters’ legendary Garage Francorchamps of Belgium to the renowned Belgian racing driver and businessman Jean Blaton. By day a wealthy Belgian industrialist who often raced under the pseudonym “Beurlys”, Blaton quickly stuck up a friendship with Jacques Swaters and drove with the Belgian national team Ecurie Francorchamps through the 1950s, 60s and 70s. He raced at the 24 Hours of Le Mans a whopping fifteen different times, eleven of which were behind the wheel of a Ferrari. He finished on the podium in nearly every outing and raced a magnificent array of Ferraris from that era, including a 250 Testa Rossa, 250 LM, 250 GTO, and a 330 P4. It only made sense that a 288 GTO Evoluzione found its way to one of Ferrari’s most favored privateer racers. By 1992, chassis number 79888 had returned to the ownership of Garage Francorchamps and Jacques Swaters, and remained with him until 2006. At this time, the car was sold to a private collector in the UK. The following year the car was sold to the Quebec based billionaire Lawrence Stroll, a noted Ferrari collector who was at that time in the process of assembling one of the most significant Ferrari collections on the planet. Remaining in Stroll’s collection for six years, the car was sold to Rick White of California in April of 2013. The following year, the car was sold to David SK Lee of Los Angeles before being acquired by David Raisbeck in late 2014, and the car titled for road use in his name in the state of Minnesota. In his ownership, the car was shown at the 2015 Cavallino Classic where it won a Platinum award and the Supercar Cup. The next year, the car was shown at the Ferrari Club of America Annual Meet in Columbus, Ohio, as well as at the special U.S. edition of the Finali Mondiali at Daytona. This special car passed to its current European custodian in 2019 where it has been carefully cared for since his acquisition. Most recently, chassis number 79888 was sent to Michelotto in Padova for a variety of cosmetic and mechanical work, including a full service. Numerous perishable parts were replaced including the fuel lines, oil lines, brake fuel lines, and driveshaft boots. The suspension dampers and brake calipers were overhauled, along with the water pump and both turbos. New tyres were fitted and all four wheels were overhauled. The original gearbox was also overhauled so all internal seals and the clutch shaft could be replaced. Cosmetically, the car was fully repainted in the original Rosso Corsa, and the dashboard covers, seat covers, seat belts, door windows, and rear-view mirror glass was all replaced. In the engine bay, the intake system and heat exchanger were polished, whilst the cylinder head covers were repainted. All work carried out on the car by Michelotto totaled to over €133,000, leaving the car in excellent mechanical condition both inside and out. This work was begun with an open checkbook in mind and no stone to be left unturned and the car proved to be in outstanding overall condition to begin with, attesting to the car’s quality and provenance. Today, the car is fully prepared to be used and enjoyed should its next owner seek to enjoy the thrills of one of Ferrari’s rarest and most exciting cars on the track. A fascinating case of the final Enzo Ferrari-directed GT race car and the first racing version in Ferrari’s legendary supercar series, the 288 GTO Evoluzione remains today as one of the rarest and most sought-after competition Ferraris ever built. Seldom seen in public and with many hidden away in long term collections, the opportunity to acquire one is even rarer than getting the chance to see one at a concours event or in a museum. Undoubtedly the most radical Ferrari of the 1980s, the opportunity to acquire this sensational car is a must for any supercar or race car focused Ferrari collection. 1987 Ferrari 288 GTO Evoluzione RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

The Certificate of Origin we have with the car confirms it was produced in March 1989 and delivered in April to Mönchengladbach in Germany. From there is travelled to the UK and records show it was there in 1994. We can assume it was converted to RHD during its time in the UK where conversions were common and done well by authorised companies such as Bell and Colvill. All Series 3 and 4 cars left the factory as LHD cars however they were sought after in the UK and conversions were quite common until production ceased in 1994. The car has spent most of its life in Australia and the import plate shows it arrived in 1995. It shows no signs of any corrosion and was recently subject to fresh coat of paint. During preparation no signs of corrosion were evident anywhere and the original colour is spectacular. Over the last 2 years the owner has invested in excess of $30,000 with the car benefitting from new old stock Dell Orto carburettors, new disc brakes and callipers, new Eibach springs and shock absorbers, electric fuel pump, 1-2-3 ignition, hoses, bushes and so on. A thick folder of invoices accompanies the car. The interior is a lovely place to be and the period Momo Prototipo steering wheel greets you as you get in. The instruments are clear and present as new. The odometer is reading 110,000mns and the general condition of the car suggests this is original. The dash is without any cracks at all. The seats have been recovered at some point in a blue velour, as have the door cards. Whilst not original they are extremely well done and suit the car well. In the hot Australian climate, they are certainly more useable than the original black vinyl. They are comfortable and have no marks, rips or tears. The correct type of mohair hood is fitted and is in perfect condition. The car wears period correct Alfa Romeo alloy wheels which have been refurbished and present as new. They complete the car and look superb. Start the engine and you immediately know you are in an Alfa Romeo. The 2000cc engine fires up with that familiar growl and then you are away. Out on the open road this car drives incredibly well and the gearbox is a delight to use without any issues on any of the synchro’s. The steering is very precise and accurate as you would expect given the work invested. The original fuel injection was replaced by dual Dell Orto carburettors and this has translated to an incredibly responsive and usable power delivery. Of note is the car still retains its correct and matching numbers engine. Overall, this is an example of a later Spider in excellent condition without any signs of historic corrosion and suggests it has led a pampered life. There is a lot to like about this car, particularly given the asking price. It is a superb driving car in a stunning original colour combination. A wonderful opportunity to own an Italian convertible with all the work done. 1989 Alfa Romeo Spider Сlassic Сar Market If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

-They've invented the snooze missile. Something that is both easy and hard to drive, sounds like every petrol-fueled dream and drives smooth and refined. - The Ferrari 550 Maranello. In 1996, the Ferrari 550 Maranello was first presented to the public. A car that upheld many things, but also stopped pretending. For example, the 456's hamster rear seat disappeared and made way for a luggage compartment. A true two-seater for long distances, with temperament of an Italian who just walked out of the espresso bar. The 550's V12 is actually - a bit bipolar. Underneath, it's a wonderful car for touring and comfortable driving. However, once you turn on the 5.5 V12, your golf bag in the back goes to a hundred in 4.4 seconds and it pulls through to 320 km/h. FORE! And then a word about that big chrome shifter in the middle ... That is ultimately, what we too do it for....

Something that is both easy and hard to drive, sounds like every petrol-fueled dream and drives smooth and refined. - The Ferrari 550 Maranello. In 1996, the Ferrari 550 Maranello was first presented to the public. A car that upheld many things, but also stopped pretending. For example, the 456's hamster rear seat disappeared and made way for a luggage compartment. A true two-seater for long distances, with temperament of an Italian who just walked out of the espresso bar. The 550's V12 is actually - a bit bipolar. Underneath, it's a wonderful car for touring and comfortable driving. However, once you turn on the 5.5 V12, your golf bag in the back goes to a hundred in 4.4 seconds and it pulls through to 320 km/h. FORE! And then a word about that big chrome shifter in the middle ... That is ultimately, what we too do it for....

Trailblazers With Ferrari yet to be convinced by its flagship 550 Maranello’s credentials as a competition car, it fell to smaller privateer outfits to prepare the elegant twelve-cylinder Gran Turismo for racing and prove its worth. Prove its worth they most certainly did – widely respected names such as Prodrive and Italtecnica unlocked the front-engined model’s potential, ultimately instilling Ferrari with the confidence to greenlight development of what would become the 575 GTC. Among the earliest competition variants of the Ferrari 550 Maranello were the two identical cars built by the French privateer team XL Racing to contest the GT2 and N-GT categories of international endurance racing. The development of said cars was overseen by the longstanding Peugeot Sport engineer Michel Enjolras with the direct assistance of Italtecnica in Italy. A bespoke and ultra-strong roll-cage was fabricated by Matter in Germany, the V12 engine was massaged and extensive work was invested into weight-saving and honing an aerodynamically advanced carbon-fibre body package. The result was a car which weighed a staggering 400kg less than the road-going Ferrari 550 Maranello and, with 600HP on tap, was a healthy 130HP more powerful. More pertinently, the thorough development of XL Racing’s 550 Maranello GT2 granted it homologation from the respective governing bodies of the 24 Hours of Le Mans, the American Le Mans Series and the French FFSA GT Championship. Chassis number 108536 The second of XL Racing’s two 550 Maranello GT2s, chassis number 108536 first contested the 2002 French FFSA GT Championship, though was soon transported across the pond to the United States to compete in the American Le Mans Series (ALMS). Preparation and running of the car was entrusted to the German outfit Seikel Motorsport, which boasted a wealth of experience in the ALMS. America’s top-flight endurance motorsport series, the ALMS generated a great deal of media and commercial interest, not only stateside, but also back in Europe. The XL Racing Ferrari 550 Maranello GT was entered into two events during the 2002 ALMS season. First up was the Road America 500 at the history-steeped Elkhart Lake circuit in Wisconsin. Drivers Craig Stanton and Stefano Buttiero duly announced the arrival of the 550 Maranello, crossing the line an impressive seventh in the GT category. Next up was arguably the jewel in the ALMS crown: Petit Le Mans at Road Atlanta. Craig Stanton was joined for the 1,000-kilometre affair by Hugh Plumb and the French endurance racing veteran Gilles Vannelet. Alas, the trio was forced to retire after 171 laps. The following year, chassis number returned to France and the fiercely competitive FFSA GT Championship. The car contested all 12 rounds of the series, raced predominantly by Gael Lesoudier, and picked up three podiums in the GT category. Arguably the most significant moment of 2003 for this Ferrari 550 Maranello came in July at the tiny Merignac circuit in Bordeaux, France. A certain M. Schumacher – you know, the seven-time Formula 1 World Champion and all-time Ferrari great – was present to personally deliver an Enzo to one of Ferrari’s most important clients. Rumour has it that Schumacher spotted this 550 Maranello GT2 in the paddock and asked XL Racing if he might be able to have a go. Several spirited laps later, a visibly ecstatic Schumacher signed the roof of the car in a gesture of goodwill. In the 1,000KM-race at Le Mans in November of 2003, the German’s signature can still be clearly seen on the roof of this Ferrari. Chassis number 108536 was sold by XL Racing in 2004, though by no means did that render the car’s competitive career over. This Ferrari remained a regular feature in the French FFSA GT Championship right up until 2007. As the photos illustrate, this Ferrari has benefitted from a thorough mechanical inspection, a comprehensive service and a cosmetic refresh. “If you’ve always dreamed of racing a 12-cylinder Ferrari at Le Mans, here’s your chance.” With regards to the latter, we commissioned PubbliMais to refinish the car in its exact livery in which it contested the 1,000km race at Le Mans in 2003, at a cost of over 6,000 euros. The Torinese company famously applied the liveries for Lancia’s Works competition cars throughout the decades and it’s fair to say the artisans there know a thing or two about livery application. The finish is nothing short of exquisite. A naturally-aspirated 12-cylinder flagship Ferrari with competition history at international endurance motorsport’s highest level, this 550 Maranello GT2 by XL Racing in an important piece of racing history. Not least because, together with the other examples built for competition by privateer teams, it ultimately proved the racing pedigree of the model and gave Ferrari the confidence to build its own version. Furthermore, with the burgeoning popularity of modern-era endurance racing cars in the world of historic motorsport, chassis number 108536 is a highly eligible car with which to join this exciting movement. You only had to look at the voluminous and wildly diverse Endurance Racing Legends grid at this year’s Le Mans Classic to appreciate the appetite for these cars. If you’ve always dreamed of racing a 12-cylinder Ferrari at Le Mans, here’s your chance. 1997 Ferrari 550 Maranello GT2 by XL Racing Girardo & Co.

The following year, chassis number returned to France and the fiercely competitive FFSA GT Championship. The car contested all 12 rounds of the series, raced predominantly by Gael Lesoudier, and picked up three podiums in the GT category. Arguably the most significant moment of 2003 for this Ferrari 550 Maranello came in July at the tiny Merignac circuit in Bordeaux, France. A certain M. Schumacher – you know, the seven-time Formula 1 World Champion and all-time Ferrari great – was present to personally deliver an Enzo to one of Ferrari’s most important clients. Rumour has it that Schumacher spotted this 550 Maranello GT2 in the paddock and asked XL Racing if he might be able to have a go. Several spirited laps later, a visibly ecstatic Schumacher signed the roof of the car in a gesture of goodwill. In the 1,000KM-race at Le Mans in November of 2003, the German’s signature can still be clearly seen on the roof of this Ferrari. Chassis number 108536 was sold by XL Racing in 2004, though by no means did that render the car’s competitive career over. This Ferrari remained a regular feature in the French FFSA GT Championship right up until 2007. As the photos illustrate, this Ferrari has benefitted from a thorough mechanical inspection, a comprehensive service and a cosmetic refresh. “If you’ve always dreamed of racing a 12-cylinder Ferrari at Le Mans, here’s your chance.” With regards to the latter, we commissioned PubbliMais to refinish the car in its exact livery in which it contested the 1,000km race at Le Mans in 2003, at a cost of over 6,000 euros. The Torinese company famously applied the liveries for Lancia’s Works competition cars throughout the decades and it’s fair to say the artisans there know a thing or two about livery application. The finish is nothing short of exquisite. A naturally-aspirated 12-cylinder flagship Ferrari with competition history at international endurance motorsport’s highest level, this 550 Maranello GT2 by XL Racing in an important piece of racing history. Not least because, together with the other examples built for competition by privateer teams, it ultimately proved the racing pedigree of the model and gave Ferrari the confidence to build its own version. Furthermore, with the burgeoning popularity of modern-era endurance racing cars in the world of historic motorsport, chassis number 108536 is a highly eligible car with which to join this exciting movement. You only had to look at the voluminous and wildly diverse Endurance Racing Legends grid at this year’s Le Mans Classic to appreciate the appetite for these cars. If you’ve always dreamed of racing a 12-cylinder Ferrari at Le Mans, here’s your chance. Other Cars from Girardo & Co.

On offer here is a very well built example of BMW's legendary 1970s E9 Coupé with a guide price that’s a fraction of its build cost. Its private owner acquired a left-hand drive 1973 3.0CS road car with a V5C during the COVID lockdown period and set about building the very best FIA 'Group 2' BMW ‘Batmobile’-specification he could and the results are impressive. Marque experts, Laranca Engineering, who have built and run many CSLs in recent decades, were used for technical assistance throughout the project and the car was completed in 2022, with only test miles and dyno-time since. FIA HTP papers were issued once the build was completed (GB12959) and are valid until 31st December 2031. The remarkable specification is detailed below: Roll-cage FIA and MSA Certificate included. Full chassis set up by Laranca Engineering Laranca 3.5-litre race engine, billet dry-sump system, all their top spec components including modifying a brand-new BMW cylinder head Dyno sheet included - 384bhp. Brand new slide throttle assembly and fully rebuilt race Kugelfisher pump (the fuel injection system alone cost in excess of £20,000) Getrag 265 gearbox built to race specification by Laranca Engineering. Laranca race spec differential, with high-grade output shafts and flanges Fully plumbed-in diff cooler pump, and rear wheel arch-mounted radiator. These modifications are expensive but essential for reliability in endurance events Brand new, top-specification braking system with calculations by BG Developments (AP Racing UK). New discs, bells and callipers, all period correct AP CP 2270 & CP 2271 calipers. Bias pedal box, adjustable from driving seat 120-litre ATL bag tank in alloy container. Special billet alloy top plate, swirl pot etc. Note bladder will need either replacing or re-certification, new bladder readily available (new cost c.£800) Specially made heated windscreen Top specification suspension, Laranca Engineering struts and coil-overs, dynamically set, fully adjustable anti-roll bars with calculations and easily adjusted with slot-in various anti-roll bar diameters. Fully re-engineered rear suspension, reinforced and modified for full adjustment using spherical joints Front subframe fully reinforced and modified to include conversion to steering rack. Aircraft-grade alloy control arms, spherical joints with full adjustability Complete body restoration by Normandale starting with stripped and blasted shell, full rotisserie build Fully lightened and strengthened according to homologation. Correct homologated 1975 ‘box arch' body kit. Handmade aluminium bonnet and boot, aluminium door skins. Painted in BMW racing colours, note all stripes are painted on (not transfers) - full photographic record of shell preparation The car currently has period correct side exiting exhaust (unsilenced) however, the shell was built with potential future noise restrictions in mind so there is space to add full silencers without altering looks or ground clearance etc. A fully silenced system can be added without making any modifications to the shell or floor Bespoke racing wiring harness with full range of Stack instruments, relays, circuit breakers, Lambda sensors fitted with fuel/ air gauges. Plumbed in OMP electric fire suppression system, FIA-approved, alloy bottle New CNC machined billet centre split-rim wheels with almost new Avon slicks (test miles only) MOMO steering wheel, lightweight flock sprayed dash. Note seat & belts date expired So many special details, alloy rad and coolers, numerous CNC machined items There are a considerable number of spares included with the car. To replicate this car to this standard would cost way in excess of £200,000 today and take many hours of hard work. Combine this with the fact that this car with its FIA papers offers access into some of the best historic motorsport in the world today makes this a really interesting proposition, and we highly recommend that interested parties come and see this simply remarkable 'Batmobile' for themselves. 1973 BMW 'CSL Batmobile' 3.5-Litre FIA Iconic Auctioneers Ltd If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

This 1992 Alfa Romeo Spider Duetto 2.0 is part of the last generation of the classic Spider, only produced from 1990 to 1993. It is the final rear-wheel-drive Spider, making it a true Alfa Romeo for the purists. This car is finished in the sought after British Racing Green, and is still in first paint, which is rare for a 30 years old car like this. It has been recently polished, giving it a fresh, almost new appearance. Combined with its tasteful beige interior and a black soft top in very good state, the vehicle looks elegant. In total, it has travelled 112,000 kilometers, has never been involved in an accident, and spent its life between Germany and Italy, before moving to Belgium where it is now located. Under the hood is the legendary 2.0-liter twin-cam engine with Bosch fuel injection, paired with a 5-speed manual gearbox. It drives exactly as a classic Alfa should: light, responsive, and full of character. The car drives quite well and smoothly. Inside, the car offers a nice mix of classic charm from the first generations, and comfort of the 90’s Alfa. It comes with a beautiful wooden Nardi steering wheel and gear selector, leather and Alcantara sport seats, electric windows and mirrors, and working air conditioning. In summary, this is a well-preserved and elegant example of one of Alfa Romeo’s most iconic models. It’s ready to be enjoyed as a stylish weekend car, and could be your perfect match for the next summer. 1992 Alfa Romeo Spider 2.0i AD Sportscars If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

The original Ford Sierra RS Cosworth was the first Ford to wear the Cosworth badge and was presented to the public at the Geneva Motor Show in March 1985. It was introduced as a means of homologating the Sierra for 'Group A' Touring Car racing, with a requirement that 5,000 cars were built and sold. Launched for sale in July 1986 and based on the three-door Sierra body-shell, it was designed by Ford's Special Vehicle Engineering (SVE) and was powered by a Cosworth-designed 2-litre turbo engine of now legendary repute. In total 5,545 cars were produced, of which 500 were sent to Aston Martin Tickford for conversion to the Sierra RS500 Cosworth. Once Ford had built the requisite 5,000 RS Cosworths, 'Group A' rules allowed an upgraded 'evolution' model to be launched. This could carry changes focused on improving its racing potential, provided Ford sold 10% of the original number as road cars, hence the 500. The RS500 was announced in July 1987 and had a mechanically uprated Cosworth engine (more similar to the one to be used in competition), with power boosted to 224bhp, upgraded brakes, modified bodywork and the cachet of being hand-assembled. The vast majority (392) were finished in Black, 56 in Diamond White and 52 in Moonstone Blue. Finished in black with a grey Recaro interior, this particular 1987 Ford Sierra RS500, #184/500, is in outstanding condition throughout and had covered a believed genuine mileage of just 52,057 at the time of viewing. Externally, as can be seen from our images, the car presents superbly and whilst there may have been minor paint rectification over the years, it is almost impossible to say where, given the standard of finish. With an unmolested interior and a fully detailed engine bay we suggest that this RS500 will be welcome within any Ford Collection given that it is has clearly led a cherished life, evidenced by recent works carried out to keep it on its toes including a new Garrett Turbo, replacement cam belt and tensioner, new steering rack, a replacement fuel tank and all the general service items that need regular attention on a vehicle of this nature. Pleasingly, it should be noted that the registration number, A500 MAG, was assigned to the vehicle in March 1990 and is seemingly an important part of its history, so consequently it will remain on the vehicle and forms part of the sale. With the Performance Ford market remaining as strong as ever and with the RS500 being top of that list, we strongly advise your early inspection of this impressive example. A rare opportunity to join the small and exclusive club of RS500 ownership at what we believe is a very sensible guide. 1987 Ford Sierra RS500 Cosworth Iconic Auctioneers Ltd If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

For decades Ferrari enthusiasts have sought coachbuilt front engine V12 cars that can be driven with friends and family members as part of the joy of ownership. The spirit of casual use however has dramatically changed as values have rapidly escalated resulting in sequestering one-off designs and coachbuilt examples to museums or private collections limited to static viewing. Yet a select few enthusiasts have more recently taken a different approach to suit this challenge. By engaging contemporary coachbuilders with similar build commissions as the original, modern iterations of specialized tribute cars have emerged in celebration of these venerable 250 series cars. Such is the case with this cleverly conceived and beautifully constructed one-off Ferrari 250 GT Speciale. Commissioned by David Rose, this one-of-a-kind Ferrari Speciale was constructed in tribute to the original 1957 250 GT (s/n 0725) built by Ferrari for HRH Prince Bernhard van Lippe-Biesterfeld of the Netherlands, a close friend of Enzo Ferrari. The prince commissioned and owned the car which was originally finished in black with a green interior, subsequently changing colors in later ownership to maroon and then dark blue with tan leather interior when it was restored more recently by Paul Russel. David Rose began his life-long career with cars early in his life, beginning as a member of a small California-based race team in the 1960s. With his passion for cars growing, he opened GTB Motors in San Rafael, CA to offer a wide range of performance cars, quickly establishing a focus on Ferraris. This operation remained active from 1971-1974 until Rose moved the business to San Diego, changing the name to Ferrari of San Diego, CA where he offered exclusive access to some of the most legendary Ferraris of the century. By the 1980s, the dealership blossomed to become the second largest Ferrari dealer in the US, changing the name to Ferrari of La Jolla, CA for a brief period of time before the same establishment returned to the name it still carries today - Ferrari of San Diego. As a prominent dealer, Rose became close friends with Enzo owning many Ferraris including the one-off Ferrari Superfast 1 (s/n 0483). Over the years buying and selling some of the very best examples of the 250, 275, 330, and later 365 series cars, Rose began to imagine his own Speciale built to the same exacting standards of Italian coachbuilt excellence he’d witnessed in the one-off or limited production cars he’d offer to customers. Although the dream to construct this car would linger with Rose for some years, he eventually brought his dream to reality purchasing a 1970 Ferrari 365 2+2 from Copley Motorcars, Needham, MA on April 16, 2010. Under prior ownership invoices accompanying the car cover services provided by Boston Sportscar Co. from 1999 through 2009, spanning 43,000-47,638 miles, tending to numerous mechanical systems including rebuilding the engine (2000), a new clutch, rebuilding the rear suspension, new cooling fans, new rear shock load levelers, and air conditioning service, totaling over $60,000 before the build commenced. In 2010, the car was transported to Allen Buresh, owner of Coachsmithing, located in Blair, WI. The car was stripped to bare factory metal, the entire interior removed, and all trim, components, and exterior features removed. The 365 2+2 production body skin was carefully removed from the supporting inner structure, retaining critically important structural inner wheel housings, the entire chassis with stock suspension mounts, inner door frame and door strike structure, the entire cowl structure and windshield frame, and engine compartment structure. These key structural components were the basis for the new body shell which would be hand formed and mated to the original structure, unifying the body/chassis platform with the new tribute 250 Speciale body. The body panels were constructed entirely from aluminum alloy sheet material, hand formed using traditional coachbuilding methods much like the original in 1957 using wood hammer forming bucks to create the curves and transitions from the long front fenders through the new door panels and rear fenders which formed the convertible body, trunk, and unique removable hardtop. A new metal dashboard was also hand formed around two large gauges and four smaller offset gauges. Careful attention was given to details such as the hood and hood scoop, polished aluminum front fender side vents, a wide Ferrari grille, handmade bumpers, and uniquely sculpted taillights. As an added feature, the car was designed to retain the same unique roofline of the 1957 original design while making the entire roof removable to transform it into an open touring car. The roof was carefully constructed to create an accurate trailing roof line with a distinct fastback look when in place, but to also reveal an elegant convertible when removed. All surrounding trim for the roof perimeter was hand formed in aluminum and polished to replicate the original. During construction, the decision was made to incorporate more refined front bumper treatment than the vertical uprights originally used in the Prince Bernhard Speciale. A pair of thin horizontal chrome bumpers were fabricated and fit to the front corners under the enclosed headlights. Every aspect of the body design and details without exception was touched by expert hands creating custom pieces including the specially-toled and curved windshield (safety glass) and specially-toled 2.5mm side safety glass panels. For the interior, every detail was carefully constructed including tan leather applied to low profile bucket seats, period correct door panels, a central hinged armrest, and the central tunnel housing the 5-speed manual gearbox. Correct light colored carpets were trimmed and fit to the floor, while the dashboard, dropdown panel to the central console, and upper door trim were finished in black leather consistent with period construction. The trunk was also finished with matching carpet and black rear bulkhead. After seven years of painstaking construction and half a million dollars of documented invoices detailing every aspect of handcrafted coachwork, the car was nearly complete by late 2017 when David Rose sadly passed away. Though having achieved his vision and seeing it through to a very high standard, fate handed the completion to his brother who continued the project, completing the final touches in keeping with David’s original vision. The car has been retained by the family estate in a private collection and in September 2024 was serviced by Ferrari expert Patrick Ottis & Co. tending to the rear air suspension system, servicing gauges and lighting, installing a new clutch cable and custom support mechanism, tuning the carburetors, checking the electrical and charging system, new spark plugs, a compression test returning 165-175 across all 12 cylinders, and test driving the car to ensure proper operation. Having been in storage since completion and only revealed to specialty fabrication shops and service specialists, this beautiful Ferrari 250 Speciale Tribute is ready to debut at any major concours event, Ferrari Club gathering, or private showing. This exceptional example of coachbuilt artistry, vision, and conceptual fortitude is offered to the next fortunate owner on consignment from the estate of the owner. Today this beautiful Ferrari 250 Speciale exhibits all the grace and presence of an original coachbuilt Italian performance car. With desirable operational features and venerable drivetrain from the powerful 365 GT 2+2, the car is both a pleasure to view and drive. The red paint is excellent with consistent coverage and vivid gloss throughout the hand formed body with minor paint chafing noted in one area of the hood edge where the hood fit will need adjustment and minor refinishing. Panel fit is exceptional, owing to the craftsmanship offered over seven years of careful construction. The doors exhibit crisp closures while the hood and trunk open and shut properly. The exterior chrome is in excellent condition, while the trim and emblems are nicely finished and detailed. The polished aluminum 15” Borrani wire wheels and chrome plated knock-offs are in good condition, though the outer spoke deck for rims will benefit from removal of aging clear coat residue. The wheels are fit with new Pirelli Cinturato P205 R15 tires showing ample tread remaining. The lighting and lenses are all very nicely preserved with excellent clear polish to the headlight covers and beautifully formed taillight lenses and perimeter trim. The custom molded glass and surrounding polished aluminum trim are in excellent condition. In all, the elegant Pininfarina inspired coachwork presented in this unique one-off Speciale captures the grace, presence, and majesty of the Ferrari 250 legend. The tan leather interior has been properly maintained over the past seven years since completion, currently displaying supple leather surfaces, correct design, and stitching which accurately reflects the heritage of this specially constructed Ferrari. The handmade dashboard and Veglia gauges are beautifully presented exhibiting excellent color, clarity, and bright contrasting numeric indication. The black leather covered dashboard is in excellent condition, draping downward into the center console, which features venting for the air conditioning and outside air, electric window switches, and the highly desirable 5-speed manual shifter. Although this car is outfitted with air conditioning, the system is not currently operational. The wood rimmed steering wheel is beautifully finished accented by aluminum hub and spokes and Cavalino center emblem. The headliner, door panels, and finished rear bulkhead compartment are very well done delivering an overall visual appearance of luxury materials and vintage style in keeping with the era. Although originally designed as a 2+2, this Speciale was constructed as a two-seat configuration, with the rear cowl covering the space behind the seats as a finished storage area. The light-colored carpet shows mild signs of use consistent with lighter colors that tend to show use more readily than darker tones. The trunk compartment is carpeted in matching colors and remains in generally good overall condition. Throughout the interior, a range of delicate and refined switches, handles, interior components, and details have been addressed with thoughtful considerations using original Ferrari elements. The removable roof is detachable from the rear and is recommended as a two-person operation, released from mating sections at the windshield header. Though the side glass weatherstripping has not been installed to the side window recesses in the hardtop roof, ample spare weatherstrip material is included with the car which should complete this portion of the inner window trim. Under the hood, the original matching numbers engine delivers a very satisfying visual impression, with correct factory finishes and tidy presentation. Features include correct hoses, lines, and fasteners, as well as a correct air cleaner, correct black textured cam covers, twin distributors, and factory accessories. While the engine compartment has not been prepared to concourse show level, and some finishes show signs of age, the engine and engine compartment can be enjoyably displayed at any local car event with confidence and pride. The underside of the car is generally clean and well-tended with no visual evidence of structural compromise. The car starts easily and settles into a smooth idle while warming to operating temperatures. Gentle blips of the throttle reveal crisp V12 sounds and sonorous exhaust from the quad-tipped rear exit pipes. Behind the distinctive Nardi steering wheel, the car provides excellent power, pulling far more than a traditional 250 from the original era. The gearbox and clutch work well together, braking is very good overall, and the suspension delivers balanced results consistent with manners found in 365 2+2 GT models of this period. This Ferrari is accompanied by copies of extensive build invoices, accounting for all expenses and services, a new set of inner tubes for the Pirelli tires, spare carpet for various sections of the car, spare interior materials and padding, linear feet of weatherstripping suitable for finishing the side glass seals on the hardtop edges, various loose hardware and smaller trim pieces, a spare can of matching red paint, a knock off spanner, the original Ferrari serial number plates, owner’s manual, and a Cavalino horn button. This Ferrari 250 GT Speciale Tribute offers a once in a lifetime opportunity to own a coveted design from the most desirable period of Ferrari V12 history. Delivering performance and luxury in an exclusive one-off coachbuilt design, this dynamic tribute can be experienced as both a closed and open car simply by removing the roof. This beautiful Ferrari is poised for final refinement as a superb candidate for future club events, tours, or enjoyable driving just as intended when conceived by one of the foremost west coast purveyors of Ferraris in the 20th century as a lasting tribute to the genius of Enzo Ferrari, the brilliance of Pininfarina, and the ongoing skills, patronage, and artistry of modern coachbuilding. 1970 Ferrari 250 GT Speciale Tribute Fantasy Junction If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

The trunk was also finished with matching carpet and black rear bulkhead. After seven years of painstaking construction and half a million dollars of documented invoices detailing every aspect of handcrafted coachwork, the car was nearly complete by late 2017 when David Rose sadly passed away. Though having achieved his vision and seeing it through to a very high standard, fate handed the completion to his brother who continued the project, completing the final touches in keeping with David’s original vision. The car has been retained by the family estate in a private collection and in September 2024 was serviced by Ferrari expert Patrick Ottis & Co. tending to the rear air suspension system, servicing gauges and lighting, installing a new clutch cable and custom support mechanism, tuning the carburetors, checking the electrical and charging system, new spark plugs, a compression test returning 165-175 across all 12 cylinders, and test driving the car to ensure proper operation. Having been in storage since completion and only revealed to specialty fabrication shops and service specialists, this beautiful Ferrari 250 Speciale Tribute is ready to debut at any major concours event, Ferrari Club gathering, or private showing. This exceptional example of coachbuilt artistry, vision, and conceptual fortitude is offered to the next fortunate owner on consignment from the estate of the owner. Today this beautiful Ferrari 250 Speciale exhibits all the grace and presence of an original coachbuilt Italian performance car. With desirable operational features and venerable drivetrain from the powerful 365 GT 2+2, the car is both a pleasure to view and drive. The red paint is excellent with consistent coverage and vivid gloss throughout the hand formed body with minor paint chafing noted in one area of the hood edge where the hood fit will need adjustment and minor refinishing. Panel fit is exceptional, owing to the craftsmanship offered over seven years of careful construction. The doors exhibit crisp closures while the hood and trunk open and shut properly. The exterior chrome is in excellent condition, while the trim and emblems are nicely finished and detailed. The polished aluminum 15” Borrani wire wheels and chrome plated knock-offs are in good condition, though the outer spoke deck for rims will benefit from removal of aging clear coat residue. The wheels are fit with new Pirelli Cinturato P205 R15 tires showing ample tread remaining. The lighting and lenses are all very nicely preserved with excellent clear polish to the headlight covers and beautifully formed taillight lenses and perimeter trim. The custom molded glass and surrounding polished aluminum trim are in excellent condition. In all, the elegant Pininfarina inspired coachwork presented in this unique one-off Speciale captures the grace, presence, and majesty of the Ferrari 250 legend. The tan leather interior has been properly maintained over the past seven years since completion, currently displaying supple leather surfaces, correct design, and stitching which accurately reflects the heritage of this specially constructed Ferrari. The handmade dashboard and Veglia gauges are beautifully presented exhibiting excellent color, clarity, and bright contrasting numeric indication. The black leather covered dashboard is in excellent condition, draping downward into the center console, which features venting for the air conditioning and outside air, electric window switches, and the highly desirable 5-speed manual shifter. Although this car is outfitted with air conditioning, the system is not currently operational. The wood rimmed steering wheel is beautifully finished accented by aluminum hub and spokes and Cavalino center emblem. The headliner, door panels, and finished rear bulkhead compartment are very well done delivering an overall visual appearance of luxury materials and vintage style in keeping with the era. Although originally designed as a 2+2, this Speciale was constructed as a two-seat configuration, with the rear cowl covering the space behind the seats as a finished storage area. The light-colored carpet shows mild signs of use consistent with lighter colors that tend to show use more readily than darker tones. The trunk compartment is carpeted in matching colors and remains in generally good overall condition. Throughout the interior, a range of delicate and refined switches, handles, interior components, and details have been addressed with thoughtful considerations using original Ferrari elements. The removable roof is detachable from the rear and is recommended as a two-person operation, released from mating sections at the windshield header. Though the side glass weatherstripping has not been installed to the side window recesses in the hardtop roof, ample spare weatherstrip material is included with the car which should complete this portion of the inner window trim. Under the hood, the original matching numbers engine delivers a very satisfying visual impression, with correct factory finishes and tidy presentation. Features include correct hoses, lines, and fasteners, as well as a correct air cleaner, correct black textured cam covers, twin distributors, and factory accessories. While the engine compartment has not been prepared to concourse show level, and some finishes show signs of age, the engine and engine compartment can be enjoyably displayed at any local car event with confidence and pride. The underside of the car is generally clean and well-tended with no visual evidence of structural compromise. The car starts easily and settles into a smooth idle while warming to operating temperatures. Gentle blips of the throttle reveal crisp V12 sounds and sonorous exhaust from the quad-tipped rear exit pipes. Behind the distinctive Nardi steering wheel, the car provides excellent power, pulling far more than a traditional 250 from the original era. The gearbox and clutch work well together, braking is very good overall, and the suspension delivers balanced results consistent with manners found in 365 2+2 GT models of this period. This Ferrari is accompanied by copies of extensive build invoices, accounting for all expenses and services, a new set of inner tubes for the Pirelli tires, spare carpet for various sections of the car, spare interior materials and padding, linear feet of weatherstripping suitable for finishing the side glass seals on the hardtop edges, various loose hardware and smaller trim pieces, a spare can of matching red paint, a knock off spanner, the original Ferrari serial number plates, owner’s manual, and a Cavalino horn button. This Ferrari 250 GT Speciale Tribute offers a once in a lifetime opportunity to own a coveted design from the most desirable period of Ferrari V12 history. Delivering performance and luxury in an exclusive one-off coachbuilt design, this dynamic tribute can be experienced as both a closed and open car simply by removing the roof. This beautiful Ferrari is poised for final refinement as a superb candidate for future club events, tours, or enjoyable driving just as intended when conceived by one of the foremost west coast purveyors of Ferraris in the 20th century as a lasting tribute to the genius of Enzo Ferrari, the brilliance of Pininfarina, and the ongoing skills, patronage, and artistry of modern coachbuilding.

From nearly the beginning of its history, Ferrari claimed a tradition of offering elite customers open-top touring cars that epitomized the peak of performance, luxury, and styling. Over the course of 20 years this idea matured through various chassis and coachbuilders before finding its greatest expression in what is now considered to be the manufacturer’s ultimate vintage touring spider: The 365 GTS. The 365 was a more highly developed version of the 330 GTC and GTS models, which originally debuted at the Geneva Salon in March 1966. These cars featured handsome coachwork by Pininfarina while delivering stock-in-trade Maranello punch, courtesy of a 4.0-liter iteration of the famous Colombo-designed V-12 engine. Of course, Ferrari was seldom content to let a promising platform go unimproved, so in late 1968 the 330 GTC and GTS models were quietly upgraded with even more ferocious mechanical specifications. The engine was enlarged to displace nearly 4.4 liters, making it the largest single overhead-cam motor yet equipped in a Maranello road car. Developing an uprated 320 horsepower and 267 pound-feet of torque, the new type 245/C engine offered a wider power band that thrilled performance enthusiasts. Significant torque now arrived as low as 2,500 rpm, which noticeably improved acceleration during standing blast-offs. Minor cosmetic changes visually differentiated the two models, with the new 365 cars featuring more efficient engine-cooling vents on the hood rather than the fenders, and a modified interior vent arrangement. The 365 was also produced in a much smaller quantity. While 168 coupes were built—a relatively small number in itself—just 20 cars were configured as spiders, making the open-top variant among the rarest of all Ferrari spiders from any era. No roadgoing spider built during Maranello’s pre-1970 series-production years was as rare as this elegant tourer. Writing for Forza, noted motoring author Winston Goodfellow said of the model: “The GTS is much like a lighter 365 California on steroids. Uninhibited by a roof, [it] sings louder and more throatily than the GTC. Without the 330’s fender louvers, the Pininfarina-penned shape becomes that much more pure…it’s a true master stroke of elegance.” CHASSIS 12253: THE SIXTH OF TWENTY Originally finished in a fabulous and rare paint color, and benefiting from a mechanical and cosmetic freshening completed in 2024–2025, this matching-numbers engine and gearbox 365 GTS is the sixth of only 20 examples built—a rarity that cements its status as a top-shelf Ferrari collectible. According to the research of marque expert Marcel Massini, this car was factory-finished in the beautiful color scheme of Azzurro (light blue metallic) over a Nero leather interior. Originally specified for the European market, the Ferrari was issued a certificate of origin in April 1970, and a month later the car was distributed to M. Gastone Crepaldi, the famed marque dealer in Milan. The well-known racing enthusiast and future racing team owner Dr. Alfredo Belponer brokered a sale of the 365 in July 1970 to its first private owner, Giancarlo Giliberti, who resided in a picturesque town on Lake Garda called Desenzano del Garda. By June 1976 the spider had come into the care of English nobility, passing to the collection of Sir George and Lady Burton of Ipswich, Suffolk, before being imported to the United States by the end of the decade. By 1990 the Ferrari was attractively refinished in nero paint, creating an imposing black-over-black color scheme that particularly suits the elegantly muscular 365 design. Three years later the car was sold to Joe Konis of Gardena, California, and after passing through two additional ownerships over the following eight years, the GTS was sold in February 1998 to Walter Medlin, the legendary collector who amassed a trove of blue-chip Ferraris that he stored for many decades. In September 2022, after a remarkable period of 24 years of single-owner care, Mr. Medlin sold the Ferrari to its next caretaker, who recommissioned the car for enjoyment on the open road. This work included a rebuild of the carburetors and the master cylinder, an overhaul of the wiring and electrical systems, and repairs to the flywheel, brakes, and fuel pumps, among many other measures. Cosmetically, the paint was touched up as needed and detailed, the brightwork and engine bay were detailed, and the interior underwent a complete cleaning and detailing. Finally, a new soft-top boot was fitted, and the wire wheels were shod with new Michelin XWX tires. This breathtaking black-over-black livery highlights the 365’s muscular design lines, from the small-mouth egg-crate grille through the delicately shaped rear fender haunches. Over $32,600 was invested in this phase of work. In late 2024 and early 2025, the GTS benefited from further work carried out by Gran Touring Classics of Long Beach, California, with the intent of making an already great driver’s Ferrari even better. In addition to engine tuning and adjustment, the brakes were adjusted and the electrical system was serviced, with components rebuilt or replaced as needed. Further, the operation of the driver’s door window was adjusted, and even the throttle pedal position was refined to improve the overall driving experience. Invoices for this service, which totaled over $25,000, are on file. Ideal for high-performance cruising on the open road, where the car’s recent freshening can be enjoyed to its maximum potential, this 365 GTS is a truly special Ferrari. The spider retains a very authentic character, including the presence of most of its original interior. It is also very important to note that chassis number 12253 retains its matching-numbers chassis, engine, and transaxle. Given the 365 GTS’s remarkable rarity, chances to acquire an open version of Ferrari’s 4.4-liter grand tourer like this one are infrequent at best. This unique offering presents an uncommon opportunity that should not be overlooked by any serious Ferrari enthusiast. 1969 Ferrari 365 GTS by Pininfarina RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.
