Engine
4.0L V12 SOHC with triple Weber carburetors, 300 bhp
Colour
'Grigio Notte' (dark grey)

Ferrari 330 GTS chassis 10689 is the 63rd of just 99 examples built between 1966 and 1968, bodied by Pininfarina and powered by a matching-numbers 4.0-litre Colombo V-12. Delivered new to Canada in December 1967, the car passed through several American owners before entering the prominent MacNeil Collection, where it received Ferrari Classiche certification, participated in the Ferrari Tribute to the Mille Miglia, and accumulated multiple platinum concours awards. A second full restoration in 2013 returned it to the factory shade of Grigio Notte.

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.
