This example was purchased by the seller for his exclusive private collection in 2019 from a Ferrari collector, through a specialized classic car dealer in northern Italy, with the express purpose of participating in the Mille Miglia in 2020. The seller had the car thoroughly inspected and a new set of tires fitted as well as a new battery and a general check of the engine. The car performed very well at the 2020 Mille Miglia, but unfortunately a faulty wiper motor (since repaired) forced the team to retire in torrential rain at Radicofani in Tuscany. After the Mille Miglia, the seller had some cosmetic work done, the dashboard restored and the blue leather interior detailed. To get a good idea of the lot we recommend coming to the viewing day.
