The second 250 GTO built. Originally a Scuderia Ferrari car. First raced at Sebring March 1962. Second overall and 1st in GT with Phil Hill and Oliver Gendebien. Then raced at Le Mans, June 1962, finishing 6th overall and 3rd in GT. Raced through the 1962 season as a NART car and then sold to a privateer who had an excellent season in 1963 and 1964. This is the second of only 39 250 GTOs built and one of only very few to have raced as a factory team car. A unique opportunity to own the very best in the Ferrari world. Price on application.
