Metallic silver-grey ('Grigio Argento')

Chassis 07093 is a 1965 Ferrari 275 GTB Series I, finished in Grigio Argento metallic over a red leather interior, originally delivered to its first owner in Brescia by the Milanese Ferrari dealer Gastone Crepaldi on 17 April 1965. The car passed through several Italian and American hands before settling into a lengthy single ownership in Ohio. A comprehensive nut-and-bolt restoration by Ferrari specialist Andy Greene of Savannah, Georgia revealed an untouched factory engine and undamaged bodywork. It subsequently earned Best of Show at a Ferrari Club of America regional event and attracted attention at the Amelia Island Concours. Ferrari Classiche certification was granted in 2012, and the car retains its original matching-numbers drivetrain with full documentation.

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.
