Dj Dirk · 08-20-2004, 07:25 PM

alright people
this tuesday i ran into something that i didnt even knew that it excisted, and some of the other ferrari specialist knew about the car but had never seen it before.
so ofcourse i took several pics from it :wink: , wich will follow later on, but now i wanna see if somebody here knows about this car
all im telling at the moment is that its a 250 GT and the s/n is 0461GT

and i really would love to see some contemporary pics of it if somebody has that

the car is STILL owned by Robert Lee, but it isnt white anymore, at least it looks white on your old photo.
its a dark metallic greenish colour, black soft top & black interior and some interesting finishing touches

Hi Dirk,

I have seen pics of this car before. It is mentioned in the book by Antoine Prunet: "The Ferrari Legend: The road cars" page 172. There is also a 410 SA cabriolet, s/n 0485SA and a 410 SA coupé, 0477SA with the same features as the front and rear. A strange looking car though.

I will add the pics I have, please respect the copyright.

Regards

Erik

Erik van den Eijnden · 08-25-2004, 11:34 PM

And one more picture

Stradale · 08-26-2004, 04:27 AM

It really look like an American car of the '50s. I must say I havent seen this before. Must check with my Ferrari 1947-1997 book.

Dj Dirk · 08-26-2004, 12:27 PM

thanks for the scans Erik

and here are some shots of the car from last week tuesday at the FCA Concours

nice pics, I realy like this one. She's very good looking...

Erik van den Eijnden · 08-28-2004, 10:35 PM

Hi Dirk,

thanks for your pics. This car reminds me of a whole different car: a DKW (sorry....

)

But it's unique, it's an icon of it's era and it's a Ferrari. I like it!

Dj Dirk · 08-29-2004, 03:14 AM

no way, i couldn't think of any DKW with such wings from that era, so i looked it up and only found 1 with some wings
