A 1964 Lamborghini 350 GT from the early production run of just 143 cars, this unrestored example retains its original V-12 engine and cognac leather interior, with fewer than 60,000 kilometres recorded from new. The body was refinished approximately two decades ago and recently detailed. Formerly part of the Adam Carolla collection, the car was driven regularly and appeared in a 2014 Gucci commercial directed by and starring James Franco, filmed at the Chateau Marmont in Hollywood.

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.
