1967 Ferrari 330 GTS

09481roadItaly

Engine: V12, ~4.0L
Colour: Red over tan

Ferrari 330 GTS chassis 09481 is one of only 99 open-top examples produced before production ended in 1968, making it considerably rarer than the related 330 GTC coupé. Completed in February 1967 and delivered new through an official Rome dealer, it was exported to the United States by 1970 and has remained there since. The car retains its original engine, chassis, gearbox, and body stampings, and still carries factory air conditioning and Borrani wire wheels.
