Chassis 4267 is a 1963 Ferrari 250 GT/L Berlinetta Lusso, the fifth car built of approximately 350 produced, bodied by Scaglietti to a Pininfarina design and finished in Grigio Savadim over a red interior. Delivered new to a Genoese physician in March 1963, it subsequently passed through numerous French owners over four decades before undergoing a comprehensive restoration by Bacchelli & Villa. Certified by Ferrari Classiche with a Red Book confirming its matching-numbers drivetrain, it was later shown at the Ferrari 70th Anniversary Concours.
