- 1978 Ferrari 512 BB Competizione
Following Ferrari’s dominant 1972 victory in the World Championship of Makes with the prototype sports-racing 312 PB Spider, Maranello participated in one more year of factory-based sports car racing before the program was cancelled altogether in favor of a sole focus on Formula One. Sports car racing, once the manufacturer’s stock-in-trade, was abandoned for the first extended period in the Scuderia’s history. The decision did not take hold for very long, for by 1976 Ferrari had further developed the popular roadgoing 365 GT4 BB model into the 512 BB, which featured an increased displacement of 4,942 cubic centimeters, as well as a new dry-sump lubrication system ideal for competition applications. With the advent of this new and improved model, Ferrari began to evaluate a potential return to sports car racing, and by early 1978 this notion had gained considerable traction. In preparation for the 1978 24 Hours of Le Mans, three 512 BB chassis were specially prepared to meet IMSA regulations, being built in Modena with full factory support. Various weight-saving measures were implemented to reduce the car’s girth to about 2,425 pounds, and the 5-liter engines were tuned to develop an uprated capability of 460 horsepower, while the rear suspension was revised to accommodate wider rear tires. Pininfarina’s production coachwork design was built in alloy and fitted with plexiglass windows, and modified with the addition of a larger chin spoiler and a large rear wing derived from Ferrari’s 312 Formula One car. Two of these 512 BB Competizione examples were entered by French marque distributor Charles Pozzi for competition in the IMSA GTX class. The remaining example, the featured lot chassis number 24131, was entered by Luigi Chinetti’s North American Racing Team (NART) as race #87, and driven by the team of Jean-Pierre Delaunay, Jacques Guérin, and Gregg Young. The cars were fast in testing at the Circuit de la Sarthe, navigating the curves with relative ease to significantly improve on the established lap times of the Competition Daytona model. Although chassis number 24131 only qualified for 36th-place on the starting grid, the car climbed through the ranks as the hours passed, appearing headed for a class win as Sunday morning unfolded. Unfortunately, the stock gearboxes for these cars were overmatched by the competition-tuned engines, and two of the cars eventually suffered transmission failures that forced early retirements, after running as high as 11th overall and 2nd in class late in the race. After achieving 232 laps, and surviving into the 19th hour in 11th place, chassis number 24131 was forced to bow out of Le Mans. Following the race, the 512 BB Competizione was retained by Chinetti and eventually sold directly in 1980 to Glen Kalil of Miami, Florida, a carpet dealer and Ferrari enthusiast whose collection at various times included a 195 Inter, a 206 S, and a 275 GTB/4 NART Spider. Kalil actually drove it around town as a road car, and took joyrides through Crandon Park, also occasionally renting out the local event venue, the Hollywood Sportatorium, so that he and his family and friends could enjoy the Competizione without limitations. In January 1981 Kalil traded the Ferrari to Walter Medlin, and it has since enjoyed a life of cloistered storage, remaining out of the collectible Ferrari niche and the larger public eye for 42 years. It is important to note that chassis number 24131 desirably features its original 1978 Le Mans livery, including sponsorship decals, drivers’ names, and the iconic NART decals; and it notably retains the race-prepared flat-12 engine. Ferraris with authentic Le Mans racing history are a special breed of competition car that encompass rarity and unique engineering, and NART-campaigned examples are even more unobtanium. This long-domiciled 512 is a particularly attractive example, as it has undergone no restoration since being acquired by the current owner in 1981, and remains faithful to its 1978 Le Mans appearance. Presented now from the Lost & Found Collection, the berlinetta will require a full restoration to make it mechanically sound—although the journey to rejuvenation promises to be a rewarding experience for the future caretaker interested in stewarding an important racing Ferrari back to relevance. Once restored, the remarkable racecar can be enjoyed in a host of vintage events, including the Le Mans Classic, or displayed at major concours d’elegance and marque gatherings. This enchanting Ferrari is a fascinating example of the first batch of race-prepared 512 BBs , which inspired a second series of further modified and tuned cars, the 512 BB/LM, that kept the model surprisingly competitive into the early 1980s. For the enthusiast of Maranello’s glorious return to sports car competition in the 512 BB, there is arguably no better opportunity to acquire a piece of the legend than this foundational example. 1978 Ferrari 512 BB Competizione RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

- 1968-alfa-romeo-t332-daytona
One of Alfa Romeo’s most celebrated competition models without question, the exquisite T33 succeeded the TZ as Milan’s factory-program sports-racing competition car. Largely developed by ex-Ferrari engineer Carlo Chiti’s Autodelta, which served as Alfa Romeo’s de facto racing arm, the T33 featured an advanced chassis driven by a powerful 2-liter V-8 engine, all wrapped in slippery closed coachwork in the vein of concurrent prototypes like the Ferrari P4 and Porsche 908. T33 evolutions contributed to two Manufacturer’s Championships and two 2nd-place finishes for Alfa Romeo over the following 11 years, and it remains one of the most widely admired prototype racing cars of any era. This remarkable Alfa Romeo is known to be the first of just a handful of T33/2 examples that were at some point equipped with a 2.5-liter engine. Even during the T33’s first racing season, Autodelta was already considering increasing displacement to three liters, and to this end a 2.5-liter unit was tested in Alec Mildren’s Brabham in the Tasman Series in Australia during the winter of 1967–1968. This engine specification was soon utilized in isolated instances during the 1968 season. While there is some degree of uncertainty regarding which exact chassis were equipped with a 2.5-liter motor during individual 1968 events, Peter Collins’ and Ed McDonough’s excellent book on the model clarifies that chassis 015 ran at least four races that year, two of which featured the larger engine. CHASSIS NUMBER 015 IN COMPETITION Chassis number 015 made its debut at the 1968 season opener, the 24 Hours of Daytona, as one of a trio of T33/2 examples entered by Autodelta and equipped with two-liter engines. Piloted by Lucien Bianchi and the legendary Mario Andretti, the Alfa Romeo roared to a 5th-in-class finish (6th overall), taking the middle position of a 5-6-7 consecutive finish by the three cars. While there was no separate class for under-2-liter prototypes, this dominant performance was impressive enough to earn the model the nickname “Daytona,” which was particularly appropriate considering that Autodelta had spent countless hours optimizing the T33/2 specifically for the Daytona circuit. Entered as race #220 at the Targa Florio in May, chassis 015 became the first T33/2 to appear with the 2.5-liter engine. Local Sicilian hero Nino Vaccarella leapt out to hold 2nd place for two laps before relinquishing driving duties to Udo Schutz, who proceeded to spin the car into a wall (and out of the race) after encountering a patch of loose gravel. At the Nürburgring 1000 KM two weeks later, Schutz and Lucien Bianchi achieved a level of redemption for the 2.5-liter car with a 4th-in-class finish (7th overall). In late August at the Austrian Grand Prix, the T33/2 was entered by the Belgian Count Rudi van der Straten, a descendent of the founders of Stella Artois beer, and the principal of the eponymous VDS racing team. This preferred Alfa Romeo client would soon play a much greater role in the car’s history, and VDS drivers Teddy Pilette and Gustave Gosselin finished 3rd in class (4th overall). For the 1969 season the Alfa Romeo passed to VDS, and under van der Straten’s leadership the car ran at least two events, and probably several more. Highlights included a 5th-in-class finish (8th overall) at the Monza 1000 KM in late April while driven by Pilette and Rob Slotemaker, and 5th in class (6th overall) at the Spa 1000 KM in May, again driven by Pilette and Slotemaker. AN ALFA ROMEO IN ANGOLA The following year, VDS sold chassis number 015 to a Portuguese driver named Antonio Peixinho, and he shipped the car to Angola, the African nation and onetime Portuguese colony that was a hotbed of racing before revolution swept the country during the 1970s. During the 1970 and 1971 seasons Peixinho racked up at least five victories at circuits like Malange and the Nova Lisboa 6 Hours. Driver Santos Peras then began racing the T33/2 in 1972, and he captured a victory at the Circuito de Carmona in July 1974. At some point the Alfa Romeo passed to Antonio De Santos, a Portuguese national who stored the car among a group of other period racing gems, including a Ford GT40 and a Chevron B19. With the increasing violence posed by Angola’s war for independence, De Santos returned to his native Portugal, and the racecars were left to languish while becoming something of a local legend. In the mid-1980s a Frenchman named Jean Chambault, a racing enthusiast who happened to be conducting business in Angola, heard about the dormant cars, and upon confirming the rumor he immediately contacted De Santos in Lisbon to arrange a purchase. Strangely enough, the final price included a VCR and a 2-liter Ford Cortina engine. But that was just the beginning of the negotiations, for Chambault struggled to persuade the Angolan government to release the T33/2 until finally an arrangement was made to airlift the car out in a Hercules transport plane. Mr. Chambault soon offered the Alfa Romeo for sale, and in 1994 the car passed into a short chain of Italian-based ownership, during which time it was restored by ex-Autodelta mechanic Marcello Gambi. The next caretakers acquired the T33/2 in 2000, and after further freshening the car participated in the 2000 and 2004 Le Mans Classic. Remarkably, this potent racing machine was registered for road use in Germany at this time, as indicated by German Fahrzeugbrief paperwork on file! In 2006 the Alfa Romeo was acquired by David Jacobs, a former skiing champion and skiwear entrepreneur based in Boulder, Colorado, and he conducted further restorative measures before embarking on a vintage racing campaign that included runs at the 2008 and 2010 Le Mans Classic, and the 2009 Monterey Historics. Sold to the consignor in early 2012, the Alfa Romeo was further dialed in for racing use, with no expense spared. Notably, as documented by 2013 invoices on file, over $50,000 was invested in just the engine rebuild, conducted by specialists S. Jennings Racing (then located in Tooele, Utah). It was then enjoyed at competition locales including Watkins Glen, Silverstone, Nürburgring, Zandvoort, Spa, and the 2017 Monterey Historics. Following this on-track duty, the V-8 was subsequently returned to S. Jennings Racing for inspection and assessment. Given the number of hours the high-performance engine had accrued, another full rebuild was undertaken, with 2018 invoices in excess of $65,000 detailing the work performed on the engine and ancillaries. Still fitted with the rare 2.5-liter engine, chassis number 015 is one of approximately 23 T33/2 chassis numbers allocated, of which just 10 examples are known to survive today. It should be noted that the car features a modified driver-side door for improved ease of entry, and it is accompanied by its original rear clamshell bodywork. Also accompanying the car is a substantial collection of spare parts (an inventory is on file for review). Finished in the proper #220 race livery as seen at the 1968 Targa Florio, where the 2.5-liter engine made its debut, this jaw-dropping T33/2 promises countless thrills, be it from a mere glance at the sensuous coachwork to an exhilarating round of high-performance hot laps. Perfectly suited for the prototype racing aficionado or Alfa Romeo competition car collector, this heart-stopping Daytona would make a crowning addition to any sporting collection. 1968 Alfa Romeo T33/2 'Daytona' RM Sotheby's If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

The Porsche 911 S ‘ST Evocation’ offered at Autostorico is a September 1974 example which was supplied new to North America market. Fast forward to 2006 when the car was purchased by an avid Porsche enthusiast David White. David along with the car moved to Slovenia where the journey to build the ultimate ST Evocation began. He undertook a no expense spared conversion with the help of Matjaz Novak an ex Porsche racing engineer. Works included removing the engine, gearbox and stripping the whole body, before replacing many of the panels with lightweight Kevlar or carbon panels before a respray in Viper Green.

This was mated to a close ratio quick shift G50 gearbox with a ZF limited slip differential along with upgraded brakes and suspension system. Other highlights include genuine 16” Fuchs alloys, Bonnet mounted driving lights, Bespoke exhaust system, FIA approved Heigo roll cage, Schruth harnesses, Heated windscreen. A period lightweight interior was installed which included Bielstein bucket seats, Alcantara trim and Momo steering wheel.

Jonathon's comments: 'To me the XJS has aged very gracefully and for a car that was originally not well thought of after it replaced the E-Type. It has come into our possession after the previous owner was consolidating his car collection after 14 years of ownership. You can tell it's been really well looked after.

It has come into our possession after the previous owner was consolidating his car collection after 14 years of ownership. You can tell it's been really well looked after.

History of Beck and the 904 Carrera GTS The history of Beck cars dates back to their extensive development of vintage era tribute cars focused on creating vehicles that were easily accessible to a wide range of enthusiasts unable to acquire one of the rare original examples. Known for their 550 and 356 models, Chuck Beck initiated the build process for the 904 with careful engineering considerations, releasing the 904 GTS on a custom order basis with production features including a TIG and spot welded tubular stainless-steel chassis, folded stainless sheet floor, and boxed ladder main frame rails. For the suspension, Beck developed Chevron B-16 inspired independent front and rear coil-over suspension (rear 4-link with parallel trailing arm), CNC billet aluminum uprights, and installed manual rack and pinion steering. The hand laid fiberglass body was bonded to the frame for added structural rigidity and an integral roll bar with optional door bars was integrated into the interior. The prototype GTS was tested at Road Atlanta running a 3.6-liter engine. Though these cars were offered with a range of engine options including Subaru and VW based flat 4 engines, each owner could specify engine and transmission preferences for their final build. Of particular note, a “wide body” variant was offered which featured an additional 3” of rear fender flare, allowing for the added tire width necessary to maintain adhesion on models outfitted with higher output engines. History of this Carrera GTS According to the current owner, this example is one of the first 904 models built and one of the rare wide body variants offered. The original commissioning build was performed by Beck. This example is believed to be one of the earliest 904 GTS models built and quite possibly the first wide body 904 constructed. Built with a dry sump 3.8-liter Porsche 993 twin-plug engine, fuel-injection, and 5-speed 915 Porsche transaxle, this wide body 904 was completed with track day specifications and used minimally by the first owner for a few track-day events and occasional street use. Current Condition Today this Beck 904 Carrera GTS presents as a professionally finished car with mechanical integrity and exterior cosmetics consistent with minimal use since it was completed. The silver paint has been smoothly applied over the hand laid fiberglass body panels which exhibit good fit and finish throughout the iconic 904 low-profile body lines. The additionally widened rear fender flares (exclusive to the wide body design) have been formed to accommodate the massive rear wheels yet still match the smaller front flares giving the car an impressive stance. The glass windshield, clear plastic sliding side panes, and plexiglass rear window are all in excellent condition. A set of matching staggered width Fuchs style three-piece wheels with Toyo Proxes R888 215/40ZR17 front and 315/35 40ZR17 rear race tires with aluminum Brembo red finished calipers perched over four-wheel disc brakes. Competition touches include clear plexiglass covered headlights, aluminum engine vent screen, dual chrome racing mirrors, and a set of Hella yellow lens fog lamps. The cockpit is very well laid out finished with black vinyl door trim, felt-lined rear bulkhead, and integrated rollbar. The dashboard features an instrument pod outfitted with three large-dial Porsche VDO black and green gauges including an 8k tachometer, 180 mph speedometer, and multi-gauge cluster. The dash continues across the passenger area with a series of labeled switches and contemporary VDO small dial gauges. A set of black vinyl seats are outfitted with Crow racing harnesses. A padded quick release steering wheel features a Porsche center crest and mounts cleverly in reverse configuration for added driver arm length. The interior delivers a purposeful no-frills, ready for action presentation, in keeping with the original commissioned build for a capable track day car. Raising the rear section of the car, the simplicity and effectiveness of the sophisticated Chevron B-16 inspired independent suspension, stainless-steel tubular frame, and twin-plug 993 3.8-liter engine create a very impressive visual statement. The engine is outfitted with a dry sump oil system using an aluminum oil tank and remote oil filter. The engine is mated to a 5-speed 915 Porsche transaxle and the 12-volt system uses an Optima battery and alternator. The front is accessible via a hinged hood which reveals an aluminum foam-filled fuel cell and fluid reservoirs. The underside reveals further details of the lightweight construction, independent coil-over A-arm suspension, and componentry consistent with the build performed by Chuck Beck. This Beck 904 Carrera GTS presents an excellent opportunity to acquire a professionally built and properly prepared example crafted by the premier builder of the iconic 904 in tribute to the original configuration. Although this car has been formerly prepared for track day use, we highly recommend a professional shop with racing car prep history inspect this car and properly prepare it before use in a competition setting. 1973 Porsche Beck 904 Carrera GTS replica Fantasy Junction If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

- 1962 Jaguar E-Type Series1
Of all the versions of Jaguar's long-lived and much loved sports car, it’s the very early 3.8-litre cars built prior to February 1962 (retrospectively known as 'flat floor') which, for many enthusiasts, remain the most desirable. Around 2,000 of the early cars were built with a flat floor under the pedals, but the driving position was not ideal for taller drivers, so changes were made to the footwell, creating a recess for the driver's heels. The lovely 1962 3.8-litre Roadster offered here is indeed one of those sought after early ‘flat-floor’ cars and the accompanying Jaguar Daimler Heritage Certificate confirms that #850334 was a right-hand drive car finished in Opalescent Gunmetal Grey with a dark blue interior and matching soft top. The build was finished on 6th January 1962 prior to being despatched on the 16th of the same month to Henlys, London, who registered it to its first lucky owner on the 29th. Interestingly, the chassis number and build date indicate that this was one of the first six right-hand drive roadsters built in 1962. Whilst in the ownership of Malcolm Acors, the car was fully restored and upgraded to 4.2-litres by Fullbridge Jaguar in Maldon, Essex alongside a matching Coupé and both cars were featured in a multi-page article in Jaguar World Magazine. In 2007, 6032 DD was entrusted to Eagle E-Types to upgrade to a 'Sports-Specification Eagle' which appears to be a combination of their GT, Classic, Sport and Super option packages and a full list entitled 'Eagle Endorsed E-Type – Current Specification/Proposal' is with the car. It’s a long list, covering essentially electrics, cooling, suspension and brakes but there are some substantial upgrades including a 5-speed gearbox, high-lift camshafts, diaphragm clutch and 6" stainless wire wheels with modern tyres. 850334/6032 DD was purchased by our vendor on 17th February 2012 to join his Collection and was used very lightly, but regularly, over the following years as can be seen by the MOT history (for some of this time the car was registered 5 AXD). The indicated mileage at the time of cataloguing was 4,007. Annual servicing, check-overs and maintenance has been carried out by Eagle and they have also been responsible for storing the car for long periods. Copy invoices from Eagle to the value of £13,298 (all dated 2012) are in the file which also contains Job Cards for the following years. The hood (soft-top) appears to have been replaced in September 2012 at a cost of £2,600. The final invoice in the history file is from DK Engineering, dated 2nd July 2019 for an 'Annual Service & Report' at 3,660 miles and totalling £1,112. Here at Iconic Auctioneers we have been instrumental in helping several hundred Jaguar E-Types find new homes and probably could be forgiven for becoming slightly blasé about these remarkable cars, however we defy anyone to look at these stunning Alan Kenny images of this Opalescent Gunmetal early Roadster relaxing in the late-afternoon sunshine and not feel that it is one of the most beautiful motor cars they had ever seen.

- 1953 Alfa Romeo 1900 CS Pinin Farina
Launched at the Paris Motor Show in 1950, the Alfa Romeo 1900 was a significant advance for the growing company. The 1900 was the first Alfa Romeo designed and built for production assembly and the first Alfa Romeo available in left-hand drive. Offered in four-door Berlina and two-door Sprint variants, the 1900 was initially powered by a 1,884cc, 4-cylinder twin cam engine producing a capable 90 horsepower. Racing victories in the Targa Florio and Stella Alpina rallies lead to Alfa Romeo marketing and promoting the 1900 as “the family car that wins races”. In 1951, Alfa Romeo released the shorter 2.5-meter wheelbase 1900C, followed quickly by a more powerful engine option, the 1900 “Sprint”. The Sprint was equipped with a bored-out 1,900cc engine producing 100 horsepower. Approximately 100 of the performance-oriented, short-wheelbase 1900s were delivered with the more powerful Sprint engines to famed Italian coachbuilder Pinin Farina. Pinin Farina designed the very elegant coupe body known as the 1900 “Corto” Sprint. The unique platform design and performance engine enticed other notable coachbuilders including Touring, Zagato, and Bertone, however the Pinin Farina design, with its pure lines and ideal proportions, delivers a handsome and balanced profile ideally paired with state-of-the-art twin-cam performance. Under former ownership, the prior owner purchased this 1900 CS from an esteemed Northern California collector to accompany multiple highly prized vehicles in his personal collection. Having enlisted expert Raffi Najjarian of The Pit Stop, a great deal of work was performed on the car’s mechanical components including an engine rebuild beyond CSS specifications. This rebuild included the installation of a CSS crankshaft, larger pistons, dual Weber 44 DCO carburetors feeding into an Abarth intake manifold, and new exhaust. Additional work included the installation of an oil cooler, electric fuel pump, new fuel tank, and a supplementary electric cooling fan, all of which further required upgrading the electrical system with new wiring. Substantial time was further spent improving the car’s driving dynamics. Inclusive of the suspension rebuild, all new Alfin drum brakes were installed, while the front A-arms were updated with 2500 series units and a rebuilt steering box. The original column mounted four-speed transmission was replaced with a floor mounted five-speed gearbox and a new clutch. As the mechanical work was completed, the engine bay was detailed and carefully finished using as many authentic components as possible. In 2018, the car was offered for sale by Fantasy Junction. A few years later, the owner passed away and the car was auctioned by Bonhams in 2020, at which time, the current and consigning owner purchased the car. Under current ownership, this Alfa Romeo has benefited from new leather seat reupholstery, new carpet, a valve job for the twin cam head, general mechanical freshening, and excellent paint correction to high driver level. As an added performance feature, this 1900 is outfitted with exhaust cutouts which can be engaged manually from behind the driver’s seat. These levers bypass the mufflers delivering a more vigorous exhaust note. Today this handsome Pinin Farina 1900 CS presents with a quality high gloss vivid red finish ideal for events and tours. Panel fit is generally good, in keeping with period construction. The doors open and shut easily, while the lightweight alloy hood and trunk raise and lower without issue. A few superficial stone chips are visible in the front facing areas, though none affect the overall high driver level presentation. The windshield and side glass, many of which bear the original glass Securit brand marks, present nicely including the unique sweeping wrap around rear window. The grille and eyebrow openings were re-chromed during the refresh, still offering excellent reflections and smooth finish. The rear bumpers and chrome trunk handle are also very nicely presented. The absence of further garnish molding and chrome trim is a welcome relief from often overdone cars of this period. In keeping with the performance theme, the car is finished with beautiful Borrani wire wheels. Under prior ownership, all four wheels and the matching spare wheel were rebuilt and powder-coated in silver finish. The wheels are finished with correct chrome plated dual ear knock-offs with correctly sized 2019 date-coded Michelin tires. The interior reflects the performance lineage of these exceptional cars with a focus on spirited driving. The seat supports were refinished under current ownership along with new carpet. The newly reupholstered leather covered rally-style Zagato seats complete the performance picture, giving excellent lateral support, particularly when compared to the original style bench seats. The cloth headliner and sun visors are clean and taut, while the rear parcel shelf and leather straps offer a nice finishing touch to the interior. The upgraded 5-speed manual gearbox is very well positioned, wrapped in a leather boot, and topped with a polished alloy shift knob. The dashboard features correct instrumentation with clean lenses, crisp numbers, and handsome lettering. A safety kill switch is located under the left side of the dash. The interior is handsomely finished overall with a period correct flat Nardi wooden steering wheel, accented by the Alfa Romeo center insignia. The trunk is nicely finished in satin black with a proper textured floor mat, and a distinctive optional touch – a handheld Marchal spotlight, convenient for rally road repairs, particularly effective in evening or sunset events. The engine compartment has been nicely maintained since the rebuild and recent valve job. Correct finishes, authentic parts, proper lines and materials, and uniform finishes now display slight patina resulting from modest use. During the rebuild, the engine was upgraded with twin 44DCO (No. 13 and 15) Weber carburetors and an Abarth intake manifold. A FISPA air cleaner was installed along with the Weber carburetors. The undercarriage presents with no evidence of structural compromise and while not detailed for show, all components are clean, dry, and tidy. Of note, the upgraded 2500 series front suspension and shock absorbers add to the handling and performance of this car. The car starts with ease and warms to a nice throaty idle. Driving manners are quite good under general road use, but greatly enhanced with the 5-speed gearbox, improved front suspension, and power upgrades to the engine. The engine operates with good oil pressure and proper running temperatures. The brakes operate confidently with good pedal pressure and the steering is generally good but has slight play at top dead center. The driving experience in this Alfa Romeo 1900 benefits from the upgraded floor mounted 5-speed with ratios ideally spaced for road or highway use.

The notice and take down procedure is described here: https://www.speedholics.com/copyright Launched at the Paris Motor Show in 1950, the Alfa Romeo 1900 was a significant advance for the growing company. The 1900 was the first Alfa Romeo designed and built for production assembly and the first Alfa Romeo available in left-hand drive. Offered in four-door Berlina and two-door Sprint variants, the 1900 was initially powered by a 1,884cc, 4-cylinder twin cam engine producing a capable 90 horsepower. Racing victories in the Targa Florio and Stella Alpina rallies lead to Alfa Romeo marketing and promoting the 1900 as “the family car that wins races”. In 1951, Alfa Romeo released the shorter 2.5-meter wheelbase 1900C, followed quickly by a more powerful engine option, the 1900 “Sprint”. The Sprint was equipped with a bored-out 1,900cc engine producing 100 horsepower. Approximately 100 of the performance-oriented, short-wheelbase 1900s were delivered with the more powerful Sprint engines to famed Italian coachbuilder Pinin Farina. Pinin Farina designed the very elegant coupe body known as the 1900 “Corto” Sprint. The unique platform design and performance engine enticed other notable coachbuilders including Touring, Zagato, and Bertone, however the Pinin Farina design, with its pure lines and ideal proportions, delivers a handsome and balanced profile ideally paired with state-of-the-art twin-cam performance. Under former ownership, the prior owner purchased this 1900 CS from an esteemed Northern California collector to accompany multiple highly prized vehicles in his personal collection. Having enlisted expert Raffi Najjarian of The Pit Stop, a great deal of work was performed on the car’s mechanical components including an engine rebuild beyond CSS specifications. This rebuild included the installation of a CSS crankshaft, larger pistons, dual Weber 44 DCO carburetors feeding into an Abarth intake manifold, and new exhaust. Additional work included the installation of an oil cooler, electric fuel pump, new fuel tank, and a supplementary electric cooling fan, all of which further required upgrading the electrical system with new wiring. Substantial time was further spent improving the car’s driving dynamics. Inclusive of the suspension rebuild, all new Alfin drum brakes were installed, while the front A-arms were updated with 2500 series units and a rebuilt steering box. The original column mounted four-speed transmission was replaced with a floor mounted five-speed gearbox and a new clutch. As the mechanical work was completed, the engine bay was detailed and carefully finished using as many authentic components as possible. In 2018, the car was offered for sale by Fantasy Junction. A few years later, the owner passed away and the car was auctioned by Bonhams in 2020, at which time, the current and consigning owner purchased the car. Under current ownership, this Alfa Romeo has benefited from new leather seat reupholstery, new carpet, a valve job for the twin cam head, general mechanical freshening, and excellent paint correction to high driver level. As an added performance feature, this 1900 is outfitted with exhaust cutouts which can be engaged manually from behind the driver’s seat. These levers bypass the mufflers delivering a more vigorous exhaust note. Today this handsome Pinin Farina 1900 CS presents with a quality high gloss vivid red finish ideal for events and tours. Panel fit is generally good, in keeping with period construction. The doors open and shut easily, while the lightweight alloy hood and trunk raise and lower without issue. A few superficial stone chips are visible in the front facing areas, though none affect the overall high driver level presentation. The windshield and side glass, many of which bear the original glass Securit brand marks, present nicely including the unique sweeping wrap around rear window. The grille and eyebrow openings were re-chromed during the refresh, still offering excellent reflections and smooth finish. The rear bumpers and chrome trunk handle are also very nicely presented. The absence of further garnish molding and chrome trim is a welcome relief from often overdone cars of this period. In keeping with the performance theme, the car is finished with beautiful Borrani wire wheels. Under prior ownership, all four wheels and the matching spare wheel were rebuilt and powder-coated in silver finish. The wheels are finished with correct chrome plated dual ear knock-offs with correctly sized 2019 date-coded Michelin tires. The interior reflects the performance lineage of these exceptional cars with a focus on spirited driving. The seat supports were refinished under current ownership along with new carpet. The newly reupholstered leather covered rally-style Zagato seats complete the performance picture, giving excellent lateral support, particularly when compared to the original style bench seats. The cloth headliner and sun visors are clean and taut, while the rear parcel shelf and leather straps offer a nice finishing touch to the interior. The upgraded 5-speed manual gearbox is very well positioned, wrapped in a leather boot, and topped with a polished alloy shift knob. The dashboard features correct instrumentation with clean lenses, crisp numbers, and handsome lettering. A safety kill switch is located under the left side of the dash. The interior is handsomely finished overall with a period correct flat Nardi wooden steering wheel, accented by the Alfa Romeo center insignia. The trunk is nicely finished in satin black with a proper textured floor mat, and a distinctive optional touch – a handheld Marchal spotlight, convenient for rally road repairs, particularly effective in evening or sunset events. The engine compartment has been nicely maintained since the rebuild and recent valve job. Correct finishes, authentic parts, proper lines and materials, and uniform finishes now display slight patina resulting from modest use. During the rebuild, the engine was upgraded with twin 44DCO (No. 13 and 15) Weber carburetors and an Abarth intake manifold. A FISPA air cleaner was installed along with the Weber carburetors. The undercarriage presents with no evidence of structural compromise and while not detailed for show, all components are clean, dry, and tidy. Of note, the upgraded 2500 series front suspension and shock absorbers add to the handling and performance of this car. The car starts with ease and warms to a nice throaty idle. Driving manners are quite good under general road use, but greatly enhanced with the 5-speed gearbox, improved front suspension, and power upgrades to the engine. The engine operates with good oil pressure and proper running temperatures. The brakes operate confidently with good pedal pressure and the steering is generally good but has slight play at top dead center. The driving experience in this Alfa Romeo 1900 benefits from the upgraded floor mounted 5-speed with ratios ideally spaced for road or highway use. Accompanying the car is a set of tools wrapped in a period correct cloth roll, a restored jack, a Marchal spotlight, and a matching spare wire wheel. This is a great opportunity to acquire an event eligible rare Pinin Farina bodied Alfa Romeo combining professionally refined mechanical improvements and delightful visual presentation, enhanced by thoughtful performance upgrades. For those who admire hand-built coachwork, state of the art engineering, and exciting driving, this Alfa Romeo 1900 CS is sure to deliver ongoing rewards uniquely delivered in vintage automobile ownership experiences.

- 1969-alfa-romeo-1750-gtv-serie-1
The two-door coupé, based on the Alfa Romeo Giulia chassis, had its debut in September 1963 at the Frankfurt IAA. Initially called Giulia Sprint GT, the car received a timelessly beautiful coachwork designed by none other by Giorgetto Giugiaro and is considered an absolute design icon to this day. Produced until 1975 it was equipped with engines from 1.3 to 2.0 litres. Our example, a 1750 GT Veloce of the first series with floor mounted pedals is probably the most sought after variant. Completed in 1969, the Alfa was most probably a demo with Joseph Siffert Automobiles (THE racing legend Jo Siffert) before it was handed over to its first owner, an automotive electrician from Bern, on the 14th of April 1970. On the 20th of May 1970, the beautiful coupé was registered for the first time. The GTV remained with its first owner until 2010 when, after a long storage and with 90’000 kilometres covered, it was passed on to a good friend, the vendor‘s father. The new owner had some stone chips and scratches repaired with a partial repaint and had the Alfa carefully recommissioned. In 2013 he handed the GTV over to his son who, in 2016 had all shaft seals replaced on the engine, gearbox and differential. At the same time the car also received new clutch cylinders as well as a new clutch pressure- and friction plate. In 2023 the rear axle was equipped with new brake callipers and pads and in 2024 a new brake servo as well as a new fuel pump were installed. Lack of time led to only 4’000 kilometres covered in the last 14 years and the vendor now has decided to sell his GTV. This fantastic 1750 now has 93’000 kilometres on the clock, still has its own document folder including its service booklet and is in very good and very original condition. The coupé will be sold to the next Alfisto with a number of receipts as well as the most recent veteran MOT from June 2024. 1969 Alfa Romeo 1750 GTV Serie 1 Oldtimer Galerie International GmbH If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

- 1963 FERRARI 250 GTE
The Ferrari 250 GTE (Gran Turismo Evoluzione) or GT 2+2, launched in 1960, is a touring car developed by the Italian manufacturer Ferrari, designed by Pininfarina and bodied by Scaglietti. Although a handful of Ferraris - mostly special orders - had previously been fitted with limited space behind their only two seats, the 250 GTE inaugurated a new range of bodywork for Ferrari, the "GT 2+2". Despite a certain amount of condescension from "purists", the GT 2+2 or 4-seater coupés were a great success, and for many years became the automaker's specialty. In fact, the 250 GTE and its descendant, the 330 GT, accounted for over 50% of the company's output at the time. Described as "not only a great touring car, but also a prestigious one", the 250 GTE was the best-selling Ferrari of its day. In 1964, the 250 GTE was replaced by the Ferrari 330 America, 50 of which were produced, most of them exported across the Atlantic. Strictly speaking, it was the same model, but with displacement increased to 4 liters. In order to increase sales of passenger cars and thus finance its very expensive racing activities, Ferrari decided to develop a car capable of attracting a new clientele, eager to combine the practicality of a "family car" with the sportiness of a GT. Like Maserati and the 3500 GT, Ferrari realized the importance of high-volume cars to the brand's survival. Indeed, Enzo Ferrari's son Piero Ferrari explained that two-seaters "weren't his father's favorite cars to drive. He loved the 2+2 as a personal car. He usually drove the car himself, but he was always accompanied by a chauffeur and his dog, so a 2-seater just wasn't enough". A great deal of work went into adapting the Ferrari 250 to its new vocation. Ferrari developed four prototypes, an exceptionally high number, which covered a distance never before achieved by the company. The 1960 edition of the 24 Hours of Le Mans was the occasion to present the new Ferrari 250 GTE, or rather one of its prototypes. Naturally, it appeared not as a participant, but as the race director's car, driven by the 24 Hours director. It was officially presented at the Paris Motor Show in October of the same year. 950 examples were built between 1960 and 1963, the last year of production, making the 250 GTE Ferrari's best-selling model. By 1958, Ferrari had built almost 685 road cars since its creation in 1947. Three series of 250 GTEs, distinguished from each other by a few aesthetic modifications, were actually produced The exterior Surprisingly, the design of the new Ferrari, without departing from that of the Ferrari 250 GT SWB, is by the hand of Sergio Pininfarina - and not his father Battista - marking his growing influence within the Pininfarina company. It's well known that he succeeded in retaining the racy look of a GT despite the move to 2+2 dimensions, and the 250 GTE proves to be a marvel of balance. The plunging design of the side windows, in particular, reduces the impression of a sedan induced by the horizontal roofline. 1962 saw a slight revision of the grille and hood design. Sergio Pininfarina, who had been an aerodynamics assistant in the wind tunnel at Turin Polytechnic, also understood the importance of aerodynamics in terms of aeroacoustics, and had each prototype studied in the wind tunnel. As was customary at the time, Carrozzeria Scaglietti was responsible for the bodywork and assembly of the GTE. The GTE's structure is essentially made of steel, with the exception of the doors, hood and trunk lid, which are made of aluminum. The grille, which proudly displays the brand's prancing horse, is usually fitted with additional lights at each corner. Originally positioned on the grille, these lights were moved outside in 1962. In the same year, the chrome rod running across the hood was also replaced by a rectangular air intake. A discreet body crease runs along the fenders, from the front wheel arch to the rear lights. The taillights - three vertically positioned headlamps on either side - are mounted on a chrome plate. To provide four comfortable seats, the cabin is more generous than that of the 250 GT Berlinetta, thanks to an increase of 300 mm in length and 60 mm in width, although the height is reduced by 50 mm. However, the 250 GTE only qualifies as a "2+2" - for two seats in the front and two in the rear - and not as a four-seater in its own right, since the front seats must have sufficient space up to the pedals for the driver's legs, thus penalizing the legroom of rear passengers. The interior of the 250 GTE is luxurious and "extremely" comfortable; for example, the rear seats are separated by a central armrest with an ashtray. Compared to the PF Coupé, the boot volume has been increased to accommodate the luggage of up to four people. The dashboard, meanwhile, is covered in black leather, while the eight instruments, encircled in Veglia chrome, are integrated into a panel generally the same color as the body. Engine The Tipo 128E engine, the latest evolution of the 60°-open V12 "Colombo" with a displacement of 2,953 cm3 (bore/stroke 73 mm × 58.8 mm), is positioned longitudinally forward to allow for a larger passenger compartment. With the engine positioned in front of the front wheel axle, the weight distribution is 55% front and 45% rear; although "handling is excellent", the engine's forward movement tends to accentuate the 250 GTE's understeer. This engine, whose cylinder head is taken from the 250 Testa Rossa, has already proved its worth in competition and on a number of production Ferraris. Thanks to a compression ratio of 9.2:1 and three Weber twin-barrel carburetors, the 250 GTE achieves 240 hp at 7,000 rpm, a very high figure for a 2+2 at the time, despite the extra weight - 80 kg to reach 1,280 kg - compared with the Berlinetta. It also accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just over seven seconds. The engine is mated to a 4-speed manual gearbox, the last of which is overdriven by a Laycock de Normanville electric overdrive. This overdrive reduces engine speed by 22%, thus lowering the fuel consumption of the "greedy" V12 (14 ℓ/100 km). The 250 GTE was also the first Ferrari to be equipped with an air-cooled radiator cooling system. In 1964, the 250 GTE engine was upgraded to a displacement of 3,967 cm3 (bore/stroke 77 mm × 71 mm) - and renamed Tipo 209 - to power the Ferrari 330 America, the only difference between the 330 America and the 250 GTE. The engine now delivers 300 hp at 7,600 rpm. Chassis The wheelbase of the 250 GTE is 2600 mm. The difficulty in adapting a GT, namely the 250 GT Berlinetta, to more "family" use lies in retaining the wheelbase of a coupé - i.e. 2,600 mm, as with the Pinin Farina berlinetta and cabriolet - while offering sufficient space to add two seats. The chassis of the Ferrari 250 GTE has been completely redesigned to allow the engine to be moved forward some twenty centimetres and the two rear seats to be installed in front of the axle; the tracks have also been widened by 60 mm compared to the berlinetta, in order to accommodate the engine. The suspension system received special attention, since a set of telescopic hydraulic shock absorbers - replacing the rod shock absorbers - parallel trailing arms and leaf springs, assisted by coil springs from 1963, was dedicated to it. Ferrari GTE Squadra Mobile A little-known episode in the career of the Ferrari 250 GTE is its time in the hands of the Roman police. In 1962, after several major successes against the city's underworld, the then President of the Italian Republic, Giovanni Gronchi, organized a ceremony in honor of the forces of law and order. During the ceremony, he asked the officers present what reward they wanted, to which one jokingly replied: "a Ferrari". Gronchi took the request very seriously, and Enzo Ferrari, being a shrewd businessman, agreed to donate two Ferrari 250 GTEs to the Roman police (he hoped, beyond the spin-offs in terms of image, to equip other police forces in the country). As soon as they arrived in Rome, one of the cars was involved in a fatal accident, and the wreckage was taken back to Modena and destroyed by the ever-superstitious Enzo Ferrari. The other model was entrusted to an officer named Maresciallo Armando Spatafora. The latter had impressed everyone at the tests held in Modena a few days earlier, being extremely fast, so much so that Il Commendatore himself offered him a bucket seat, which he refused, stipulating "I'm a policeman, I only drive police cars". The car was an integral part of the Roman squadra mobile until 1968, when it was sold at auction to a private individual in 1972. During its 6-year career, it was truly the star of Rome. Legend has it that delinquents occasionally paid Spatafora to chase the Ferrari. While this has never been verified, what is certain is that a significant number of crooks were put behind bars thanks to her driver, to the point of giving rise to a saying in Rome in the 60s: "Advice from the brigands to their followers: if you're out at night, watch out for the panthers (the name of the Roman police's rapid intervention cars), but if you're out until dawn, then watch out for Spatafora behind the wheel". In particular, an encounter with a French bandit nicknamed "Le Marseillais" led to one of the Italian capital's most epic chases, as the latter, hoping to take advantage of his Citroën DS's air suspension, drove down the stairs of the Piazza di Spagna, which didn't scare Spatafora, who followed and eventually apprehended him. The marks of the steps on the Ferrari's chassis are still visible today. This remarkable episode gave rise to the film Poliziotto Sprint Heritage For a very long time, cars were sold without bodywork, and it was then up to the buyer to go to a coachbuilder to "dress" his car. The 250 GTE's high degree of industrialization for its time marks a definitive turning point in Ferrari's history: Ferrari no longer sells just a chassis, leaving its customers with a car body. Our car is a Ferrari 250 GT 2+2 that left the Maranello factory in July 1963. Delivered to the Vari Gioacchino garage in Rome, it featured red bodywork and beige leather interior. The car kept this red color when a complete restoration was undertaken (photo file available). At the time, the car was painted in black with a Cartier interior whose elegance cannot be disputed. Our file shows that the car was owned by Mr Rouer in the mid-1980s. In 2009, it was acquired by Jean Pierre Van Den Doorn, a Parisian collector and dealer, who sold it back to its owner in 2010. Since then, the car has taken part in numerous rallies and trips in the hands of its owner. Regularly maintained in Parisian workshops including Pozzi, the engine was completely rebuilt in 2013 by the Atelier des Sportives. The numerous invoices available in the file attest to a car regularly used and maintained in perfect working order. Today, this Ferrari 250 GT 2+2 boasts a beautiful patina acquired over many kilometers on French roads. It's a pleasure to drive, and a real invitation to travel. 1963 FERRARI 250 GTE Historic Cars If you are interested in the content of this listing, please contact the Dealer.

The notice and take down procedure is described here: https://www.speedholics.com/copyright The Ferrari 250 GTE (Gran Turismo Evoluzione) or GT 2+2, launched in 1960, is a touring car developed by the Italian manufacturer Ferrari, designed by Pininfarina and bodied by Scaglietti. Although a handful of Ferraris - mostly special orders - had previously been fitted with limited space behind their only two seats, the 250 GTE inaugurated a new range of bodywork for Ferrari, the "GT 2+2". Despite a certain amount of condescension from "purists", the GT 2+2 or 4-seater coupés were a great success, and for many years became the automaker's specialty. In fact, the 250 GTE and its descendant, the 330 GT, accounted for over 50% of the company's output at the time. Described as "not only a great touring car, but also a prestigious one", the 250 GTE was the best-selling Ferrari of its day. In 1964, the 250 GTE was replaced by the Ferrari 330 America, 50 of which were produced, most of them exported across the Atlantic. Strictly speaking, it was the same model, but with displacement increased to 4 liters. In order to increase sales of passenger cars and thus finance its very expensive racing activities, Ferrari decided to develop a car capable of attracting a new clientele, eager to combine the practicality of a "family car" with the sportiness of a GT. Like Maserati and the 3500 GT, Ferrari realized the importance of high-volume cars to the brand's survival. Indeed, Enzo Ferrari's son Piero Ferrari explained that two-seaters "weren't his father's favorite cars to drive. He loved the 2+2 as a personal car. He usually drove the car himself, but he was always accompanied by a chauffeur and his dog, so a 2-seater just wasn't enough". A great deal of work went into adapting the Ferrari 250 to its new vocation. Ferrari developed four prototypes, an exceptionally high number, which covered a distance never before achieved by the company. The 1960 edition of the 24 Hours of Le Mans was the occasion to present the new Ferrari 250 GTE, or rather one of its prototypes. Naturally, it appeared not as a participant, but as the race director's car, driven by the 24 Hours director. It was officially presented at the Paris Motor Show in October of the same year. 950 examples were built between 1960 and 1963, the last year of production, making the 250 GTE Ferrari's best-selling model. By 1958, Ferrari had built almost 685 road cars since its creation in 1947. Three series of 250 GTEs, distinguished from each other by a few aesthetic modifications, were actually produced The exterior Surprisingly, the design of the new Ferrari, without departing from that of the Ferrari 250 GT SWB, is by the hand of Sergio Pininfarina - and not his father Battista - marking his growing influence within the Pininfarina company. It's well known that he succeeded in retaining the racy look of a GT despite the move to 2+2 dimensions, and the 250 GTE proves to be a marvel of balance. The plunging design of the side windows, in particular, reduces the impression of a sedan induced by the horizontal roofline. 1962 saw a slight revision of the grille and hood design. Sergio Pininfarina, who had been an aerodynamics assistant in the wind tunnel at Turin Polytechnic, also understood the importance of aerodynamics in terms of aeroacoustics, and had each prototype studied in the wind tunnel. As was customary at the time, Carrozzeria Scaglietti was responsible for the bodywork and assembly of the GTE. The GTE's structure is essentially made of steel, with the exception of the doors, hood and trunk lid, which are made of aluminum. The grille, which proudly displays the brand's prancing horse, is usually fitted with additional lights at each corner. Originally positioned on the grille, these lights were moved outside in 1962. In the same year, the chrome rod running across the hood was also replaced by a rectangular air intake. A discreet body crease runs along the fenders, from the front wheel arch to the rear lights. The taillights - three vertically positioned headlamps on either side - are mounted on a chrome plate. To provide four comfortable seats, the cabin is more generous than that of the 250 GT Berlinetta, thanks to an increase of 300 mm in length and 60 mm in width, although the height is reduced by 50 mm. However, the 250 GTE only qualifies as a "2+2" - for two seats in the front and two in the rear - and not as a four-seater in its own right, since the front seats must have sufficient space up to the pedals for the driver's legs, thus penalizing the legroom of rear passengers. The interior of the 250 GTE is luxurious and "extremely" comfortable; for example, the rear seats are separated by a central armrest with an ashtray. Compared to the PF Coupé, the boot volume has been increased to accommodate the luggage of up to four people. The dashboard, meanwhile, is covered in black leather, while the eight instruments, encircled in Veglia chrome, are integrated into a panel generally the same color as the body. Engine The Tipo 128E engine, the latest evolution of the 60°-open V12 "Colombo" with a displacement of 2,953 cm3 (bore/stroke 73 mm × 58.8 mm), is positioned longitudinally forward to allow for a larger passenger compartment. With the engine positioned in front of the front wheel axle, the weight distribution is 55% front and 45% rear; although "handling is excellent", the engine's forward movement tends to accentuate the 250 GTE's understeer. This engine, whose cylinder head is taken from the 250 Testa Rossa, has already proved its worth in competition and on a number of production Ferraris. Thanks to a compression ratio of 9.2:1 and three Weber twin-barrel carburetors, the 250 GTE achieves 240 hp at 7,000 rpm, a very high figure for a 2+2 at the time, despite the extra weight - 80 kg to reach 1,280 kg - compared with the Berlinetta. It also accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h in just over seven seconds. The engine is mated to a 4-speed manual gearbox, the last of which is overdriven by a Laycock de Normanville electric overdrive. This overdrive reduces engine speed by 22%, thus lowering the fuel consumption of the "greedy" V12 (14 ℓ/100 km). The 250 GTE was also the first Ferrari to be equipped with an air-cooled radiator cooling system. In 1964, the 250 GTE engine was upgraded to a displacement of 3,967 cm3 (bore/stroke 77 mm × 71 mm) - and renamed Tipo 209 - to power the Ferrari 330 America, the only difference between the 330 America and the 250 GTE. The engine now delivers 300 hp at 7,600 rpm. Chassis The wheelbase of the 250 GTE is 2600 mm. The difficulty in adapting a GT, namely the 250 GT Berlinetta, to more "family" use lies in retaining the wheelbase of a coupé - i.e. 2,600 mm, as with the Pinin Farina berlinetta and cabriolet - while offering sufficient space to add two seats. The chassis of the Ferrari 250 GTE has been completely redesigned to allow the engine to be moved forward some twenty centimetres and the two rear seats to be installed in front of the axle; the tracks have also been widened by 60 mm compared to the berlinetta, in order to accommodate the engine. The suspension system received special attention, since a set of telescopic hydraulic shock absorbers - replacing the rod shock absorbers - parallel trailing arms and leaf springs, assisted by coil springs from 1963, was dedicated to it. Ferrari GTE Squadra Mobile A little-known episode in the career of the Ferrari 250 GTE is its time in the hands of the Roman police. In 1962, after several major successes against the city's underworld, the then President of the Italian Republic, Giovanni Gronchi, organized a ceremony in honor of the forces of law and order. During the ceremony, he asked the officers present what reward they wanted, to which one jokingly replied: "a Ferrari". Gronchi took the request very seriously, and Enzo Ferrari, being a shrewd businessman, agreed to donate two Ferrari 250 GTEs to the Roman police (he hoped, beyond the spin-offs in terms of image, to equip other police forces in the country). As soon as they arrived in Rome, one of the cars was involved in a fatal accident, and the wreckage was taken back to Modena and destroyed by the ever-superstitious Enzo Ferrari. The other model was entrusted to an officer named Maresciallo Armando Spatafora. The latter had impressed everyone at the tests held in Modena a few days earlier, being extremely fast, so much so that Il Commendatore himself offered him a bucket seat, which he refused, stipulating "I'm a policeman, I only drive police cars". The car was an integral part of the Roman squadra mobile until 1968, when it was sold at auction to a private individual in 1972. During its 6-year career, it was truly the star of Rome. Legend has it that delinquents occasionally paid Spatafora to chase the Ferrari. While this has never been verified, what is certain is that a significant number of crooks were put behind bars thanks to her driver, to the point of giving rise to a saying in Rome in the 60s: "Advice from the brigands to their followers: if you're out at night, watch out for the panthers (the name of the Roman police's rapid intervention cars), but if you're out until dawn, then watch out for Spatafora behind the wheel". In particular, an encounter with a French bandit nicknamed "Le Marseillais" led to one of the Italian capital's most epic chases, as the latter, hoping to take advantage of his Citroën DS's air suspension, drove down the stairs of the Piazza di Spagna, which didn't scare Spatafora, who followed and eventually apprehended him. The marks of the steps on the Ferrari's chassis are still visible today. This remarkable episode gave rise to the film Poliziotto Sprint Heritage For a very long time, cars were sold without bodywork, and it was then up to the buyer to go to a coachbuilder to "dress" his car. The 250 GTE's high degree of industrialization for its time marks a definitive turning point in Ferrari's history: Ferrari no longer sells just a chassis, leaving its customers with a car body. Our car is a Ferrari 250 GT 2+2 that left the Maranello factory in July 1963. Delivered to the Vari Gioacchino garage in Rome, it featured red bodywork and beige leather interior. The car kept this red color when a complete restoration was undertaken (photo file available). At the time, the car was painted in black with a Cartier interior whose elegance cannot be disputed. Our file shows that the car was owned by Mr Rouer in the mid-1980s. In 2009, it was acquired by Jean Pierre Van Den Doorn, a Parisian collector and dealer, who sold it back to its owner in 2010. Since then, the car has taken part in numerous rallies and trips in the hands of its owner. Regularly maintained in Parisian workshops including Pozzi, the engine was completely rebuilt in 2013 by the Atelier des Sportives. The numerous invoices available in the file attest to a car regularly used and maintained in perfect working order. Today, this Ferrari 250 GT 2+2 boasts a beautiful patina acquired over many kilometers on French roads. It's a pleasure to drive, and a real invitation to travel.
