Colour: Azzurro La Plata (silver-blue), repainted red

Ferrari 365 GTB/4 Berlinetta, chassis 14341, completed on 17 June 1971 and delivered new through Luigi Chinetti Motors in Connecticut in the rare Azzurro La Plata over Rosso Connolly livery. A US-specification, left-hand-drive example, it passed through several owners including Japan's Matsuda Collection before entering extended indoor storage. It retains its numbers-matching engine and gearbox, verified by marque historian Marcel Massini, and emerges after nearly three decades under single ownership.
