FERRARI 330 GTC
An exquisite restoration of the most tasteful and elegant of Ferraris.
The Ferrari 330 GTC was revealed at the Geneva Motor Show in March 1966. It was essentially a coupe version of the 275 GTS.
FERRARI 250 GTE
The 250 GTE was Ferrari’s first production 2+2 car, a significant moment for the marque. Previous four-seater models had been produced by special-order for individual clients. Fitted with the Tipo 250 single overhead camshaft 3-litre V12, 957 of them were built. The Pininfarina bodywork combined the results of the latest studies on aerodynamics with extremely elegant lines.
ASTON MARTIN DB5
Considered by many to be the most beautiful and iconic British Grand Tourer ever made, this Aston Martin DB5 was first registered on 1st January 1965 and delivered to Mr Robert Symonds. Built as a manual version with the desirable ZF 5-speed gearbox, the factory ‘build sheet’ shows that it was finished in metallic Black Pearl with White Gold, Connolly leather upholstery.
ASTON MARTIN DB6
Launched at the London Motor Show in October 1965, the Aston Martin DB6 was a direct development of the DB5 and featured improved aerodynamics and a more generous specification. Powered by the same 4.0-litre DOHC ‘straight-six’ Aston Martin engine, notable differences included a longer wheelbase; a Kamm-styled rear spoiler to improve high-speed stability; a higher roofline; quarter bumpers and an oil-cooler scoop.
Ferrari 275
Matching Numbers Throughout: Original Chassis, Engine & Transaxle
The Ferrari 275 GTB is one of the most beautiful Ferrari’s ever made. It is the ultimate dual-purpose Ferrari – fast on the track and on rallies but equally drivable to the movie theatre or opera.
