drive RHD
year 1966
price P.O.R. GBP

Chassis 9117 offered here is the very first right hand drive GTB/4, one of only 27 examples to be produced, as documented in Ferrari 275GTB/GTS by Bruno Alfieri.

Delivered from Maranello to London by Mike Salmon, this was the Maranello Concessionaires car on the 1966 Earls Court Motor Show stand. Benefitting from a major restoration at Maranello, Egham in the late 80s, and a fresh engine rebuild by one of the UK's leading Ferrari engine specialists 5,000 miles ago.

This car comes with an extensive history file showing a very evident no expense spared maintenance history. Red, with biscuit interior, Borani wheels, a full set of tools, and original books. This pristine example of one of Maranello's most revered of sportscars, drives and sounds every bit as impressive as it looks.

Viewing is highly recommended for this rare and desirable 1960s 'supercar'.

Ford GT 40

drive RHD
year 1968

GT40 P/1079 was delivered new from Ford Advanced Vehicles (FAV) as one of the few privately entered Group 4 racing cars to the Belgian Jean Blaton. The competition cars had a stronger race-spec engine, a smaller, but improved clutch and a 140 litre fuel tank. They also featured a lighter flywheel and 25% stiffer suspension all around.

This car belongs to the last series of GT40 which had slightly modified body parts and was lighter than any of the earlier cars. Blaton received the yellow car on the 20th April 1968 - just in time to put the car on a transporter for the Monza 1.000 Km where Willy Mairesse and 'Beurlys' (the racing name of Jean Blaton) qualified the car 6th on the grid, but stopped after 89 laps in the race with wheel problems. The car also competed at that year's 1.000 km of Spa-Francorchamps and the 24 hours of Le Mans where 'Beurlys'/Mairesse qualified 10th. Mairesse drove first, but lost the car in rain that fell shortly before the start, crashing at high speed on the Mulsanne as a door flew open.

After the accident the car remained untouched for a while before it went to Switzerland for restoration, and in the late 80s/early 90s sold to a French-based investment fund, then offered in 1994 at a French auction, subsequently staying in France. The current owner bought it in the late 90s and, as a big GT40 collector, carried out a new restoration.

The car has been fully stripped and some wrong parts replaced or corrected. The car was then showed to Ronnie Spain, author of the book 'GT40: An Individual History and Race Record', who immediately recognised the car and stated it in writing as the original, ex-Jean Blaton car.

Since then, the GT40 was successfully driven at Le Mans Classic 2002, 2004 and 2006. It is already entered for the 2008 event and is in race-ready condition.

Only very seldom do original competition GT40s appear on the market as most of the cars which are found in historic motorsport are modified road cars.
