This stunning Ferrari 275 GTB/4 is a very desirable quad cam car with Ferrari Classiche.
The 275 GTB was a two-seater GT introduced in 1964 with production running through to 1968\. It was powered by a 3.3 litre Colombo V-12 engine which produced 280 hp. The standard 275 GTB coupe came with 3 or 6 Weber twin-choke carburettors and a Series Two version with a longer nose appeared in 1965\. A much updated GTB/4 version was introduced at the Paris Motor Show in October 1966, which had revised bodywork and came with a reworked 300 hp engine, still with two valves per cylinder but now with four camshafts and six carburettors as standard. The transaxle was also redesigned with a torque tube connecting the engine and transmission, which greatly improved the handling, noise, and vibration levels.
The example offered here is one of the 350 GTB/4s produced and was delivered new to Italy in 1967\. It was sold via the Perugia dealer Romeo Pedini to a Marino Mignimi on May 9th. Sr Mignimi kept the car for just over a year before selling it to its second owner Giuseppe Zappala on August 23rd 1968\. Factory records show that it was serviced at the Ferrari Factory Assistenza Clienti in Modena on April 14th 1969 at which time the odometer showed 21,655 km. The car remained in Italy with Sr Zappala until September 15th 1972 when it was sold through dealer Dino Armando Genghini and exported to the USA. The next record shows the car in the possession of an Iowa-based surgeon, Dr Olivencia, in 1984 who eventually passed it on to Lawrence Simon of Pennsylvania. Mr Simon was a serious Ferrari enthusiast and exhibited the car at numerous concours events across the US including the 26th, 27th and 28th Annual Ferrari Club of America National Meetings where the car placed 1st in class three years running.
Acquired by its current owner a few years ago it has subsequently benefitted from a full JD Classics restoration and now presents beautifully in Grigio Ferro Metallizzato with Red interior. With all Numbers Matching the vehicle's factory data sheet and accompanied by an original tool roll, full set of books and Ferrari Classiche it offers an exceptional opportunity to acquire a properly restored and highly desirable quad cam 275 with excellent provenance.
