1968 Ferrari Dino 206 GT
- Engine
- 2.0L V6, twin-cam
- Colour
- Red ('Rosso Dino')
A 1968 Ferrari Dino 206 GT, one of approximately 153 all-aluminium examples built between 1967 and 1969, completed production on 25 October 1968 and delivered to a Perugia dealer in Rosso Dino over Marrone with Panno Grigio cloth inserts. Numbers-matching throughout, it passed through several Italian owners before export to the United States in 1977 and has been off the road for nearly three decades, making it a strong restoration candidate.
