1963 Ferrari 330 GT 2+2

description General Information Features and Options Car History 330 America s/n 5015 GT. One owner since 1976. The long term owner, an engineer, rebuilt the motor. When inspected it started without drama, had no smoke on startup or when warmed up. Has good oil pressure and makes no potentially expensive noises. Runs and drives well with excellent syncros but so–so brakes.The body is rust free and the original paint is in amazingly good shape, but the owner/engineer somehow never found time to finish the bodywork so repairs are needed to the upper nose panel plus a paint job and interior work. This “barn find” Ferrari is really too nice to make into yet another 250 project car but it will probably become another 250 project car, simply because the cost to restore the car “as original” is probably more than it’s worth.330 America s/n 5015.
