A 1974 Ferrari 365 GT4 BB, the first and rarest member of the flat-12 berlinetta boxer lineage, completed at the factory on 10 June 1974 with Scaglietti body number 168. Finished in Bianco Polo over Pelle Blu and delivered new to a Rome dealership, the car passed through several Italian owners before moving to Sweden. It retains its original colour, matching numbers, and a well-patinated interior, showing fewer than 44,000 km, and is among only 387 examples produced.

Are you the owner of this car?

This car's public record is built from its auction and competition history. Register your ownership and privately add your own records to make it a verified Legacy Metrics passport — provenance that backs your car's value at sale and gives your insurer evidence to price against. Roy reviews and verifies every registration personally.

Each chassis record is compiled from public auction archives and links to its source material. Ownership, competition and maintenance entries are extracted from those catalogue listings by an LLM, which can make mistakes — please contact us with any corrections. The summary is Legacy Metrics’ own writing; we do not reproduce catalogue text.

“Full” and “partial” documentation labels indicate how well each entry is corroborated in the underlying sources, not an audit of the car’s physical paperwork. Names of recent or living owners are withheld for privacy.
