Chassis 11123 is a 1968 late-series Ferrari 330 GTC, one of 598 built, combining the independent rear suspension and Colombo-designed four-litre V-12 of its era with a rear-mounted five-speed transaxle. Originally delivered to a Milanese dealer in Nocciola over black leather, it passed through several American owners before receiving a comprehensive factory restoration by Ferrari Classiche — covering a full engine rebuild, suspension, brakes, electrics, and a repaint in black — and is accompanied by Classiche certification and complete documentation.

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.
