Chassis 19185 is a first-series Ferrari 308 GTB 'Vetroresina', one of the initial 712 fibreglass-bodied examples styled by Pininfarina and built by Scaglietti. Delivered new on 21 May 1976 to its first owner in Amatrice via the Rome Ferrari dealer, the car remained in Italy for its entire life and stayed with its first owner for roughly 45 years. Subsequently acquired by a Roman enthusiast, it received restoration work by marque specialist Scuderia Baldini and was certified by Ferrari Classiche in February 2025 with a matching-numbers 'Red Book'.

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.
