Description
This 1966 Ferrari 330 GT 2+2 is one of 455 Series II examples produced between 1965 and 1967 and was sold new by Luigi Chinetti Motors to its New York City-based first owner. Chassis #8627 later spent time in Texas and Minnesota before it was purchased by the previous California based owner in 1999, the car has been residing in Colorado for a few years now. An ensuing complete refurbishment was completed in 2005. Subsequently shown at the famed Concorso Italiano in 2005, 2007 and 2008 where it achieved Gold and Platinum awards. It was issued Ferrari Classiche certification in 2010 and later appeared at the 2017 Cavallino Classic and Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance. The car is finished in “Amaranto” (Dark burgundy) over cream leather upholstery. Power comes from a 4.0-liter Colombo V12 that was overhauled in 2013 and breathes through triple Weber carburetors. About 1000 miles has been added since engine overhaul. It is paired with a five-speed manual gearbox. Features include an ANSA quad-exit exhaust, 15″ Campagnolo alloy wheel and power windows. This 330 GT is now offered with a Ferrari Classiche Red Book, a history report, 2013 invoices, a complete Factory tool kit, owner's manuals, a set of red floor mats, and a clean Montana title.Designed by Tom Tjaarda at Pininfarina, the 330 GT debuted at the Brussels Motor Show in early 1964 as a replacement for the 330 America. It features a longer wheelbase and a wider grille than its predecessor. The facelifted Series II model was introduced in 1965.Stopping is handled by servo-assisted disc brakes with a dual-circuit master cylinder and a single Dunlop booster.The Ferrari Classiche scheda tecnica certificazione lists the original colors as well as delivery to Luigi Chinetti Motors in July 1966. Additional pages of the Classiche Red Book, which is dated November 2010, internal engine number 1714, transmission number 93/66, and differential number 49571.Certainly one of the finest 330GT Coupes extant this example is beautifully restored and is ready for show or touring.
