Default 1981 512BB On Offer

On Offer from Mike Sheehan...

We are pleased to offer 1981 Ferrari 512 BB s/n 35761. This 512 BB has been fastidiously well maintained, is well documented from new, and is fully serviced and ready to go. This car is exceptionally nice, needs absolutely no excuses made and will not disappoint. We welcome a detailed pre-purchase inspection. Considerably faster than a Daytona at 1/2 the price and so priced right at $129,500.

It is in Euro-spec as Enzo intended and does not have the usual ugly Federalized bumpers, side markers, and power killing catalysts and smog equipment. Finished in truly superb Rossa Corsa paint to a much higher-than-new standard, with no black "Boxer bottom". Has an extremely nice tan leather interior with black "insert" stripes and an "as-new" dash without the shrinkage so common on most Boxers. Has the attractive and desirable 9" rear "Boxer" wheels with as-new Michelin XWX tires.

This unusually nice 512 BB has had only three owners from new. Sold new to Ottis Chandler, owner of the L.A. Times newspaper empire. Then to Werner Hodgkin, an L.A. based bond broker and then in the collection of Skeets Dunn, of Rancho Santa Fe for the last twenty-five years. This pampered Boxer has always been extremely well maintained and detailed, it features a highly detailed and better-than-new engine compartment. It has just been fully serviced and needs nothing. Complete with all tools and their briefcase, the owner's manual, parts book and pouch and the correct thin spare. Has only 400 miles on a major engine rebuild, and has just been serviced. Only 22,000 total miles from new.

The carbureted Boxers are much faster than the injected Boxers, and with only 929 carbureted BBs built, the carbureted Boxers have always been more desirable
