A monumental opportunity has arisen for Ferrari enthusiasts and collectors worldwide.

With a rich racing history that includes a class win and a 2nd-overall finish at the 1962 Nürburgring 1,000 KM, this iconic Ferrari example was driven by legends like Mike Parkes and Lorenzo Bandini.

It has been adorned with awards such as an FCA Platinum Award, the Coppa Bella Macchina at the Cavallino Classic, and Best of Show at the Amelia Island Concours d'Elegance.
The 250 GTO's robust documentation, including factory build sheets and magazine features, adds to its allure.
