Chassis 5361 is a February 1964 Ferrari 250 GT Lusso, one of just 350 built between 1962 and 1964. Finished from the factory in Argento over Rosso leather, it was delivered new to Switzerland and registered in the Bern canton. The car retains its numbers-matching Tipo 168 U V-12 and original colour scheme. It entered a private French collection in 1986 and has since been kept in static display, preserving an original patina but requiring recommissioning before road use.
