Book excerpt: The 250-series was an early Ferrari success story and in 1959 spawned one of the most recognisable sports cars ever built. It is now also one of the most coveted. The 250 GT Berlinetta (aka SWB, ‘Short Wheelbase’) had a dual role as supreme grand tourer and outstanding racing car. Chassis 2689GT, the subject of Ferrari 250 GT SWB, was purchased by amateur racer Pierre Dumay on behalf of his friend Pierre Noblet – who had written off his previous 250 GT SWB in an accident at Clermont-Ferrand. Shortly after taking delivery, Noblet and co-driver Jean Guichet took the new car to a class-winning third place overall in the Le Mans 24 Hours – the dawn of a relatively brief, but very bright, competition history.

Book excerpt: Ultimate Ferrari GTO explores the story of this iconic family of cars in more detail and with more authority than ever before. Introduced in 1962 as the final evolutionary step in the long-running 250 GT series, the GTO was the last and best GT racer of the front-engine era. It remained at the forefront for three seasons, winning a hat-trick of World Championship titles for Ferrari. Ever since, GTOs have retained their exalted status not just because of their racing achievements but also their exquisite beauty, undoubted charisma and -- for those lucky enough to have experienced this -- peerless driveability. Indeed, the GTO's illustrative reputation has made it the world's most desirable car, as confirmed by the record-breaking prices repeatedly paid for the finest examples. Packed with superb photographs, many not previously published, this lavish two-volume production does true justice to this ultimate car.

Download or read book Ferrari 250 Gte written by David Wheeler and published by . This book was released on 2020-09 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: First seen as the course car at the 1960 Le Mans 24 hour race, the elegant Ferrari 250 Gran Turismo 2+2 Pininfarina, or GTE as it has become known, was Ferrari's first four-seat production car and an outstanding commercial success, underwriting the company's racing activity. Built upon the same running gear as the iconic Ferrari 250 two-seaters, the GTE continued in production until 1963, by which time 954 examples had been built. Initially popular as a "gentleman's express," the car was typically finished in conservative colours which emphasised its stunning lines.But after a few years and several owners they were sadly often neglected and came to be regarded simply as donors upon which to build replicas of other Ferraris. Thanks to the efforts of a number of enthusiastic owners who have dedicated themselves to maintaining, restoring and preserving these wonderful cars, about half of them still exist today as GTEs, valued for their beauty and history. In researching this definitive history of the model, the author consulted with respected Ferrari historians, enjoying access to their archives. He traveled extensively to view and document more than 125 examples of these cars around the world. The book is published in a limited edition of 750 copies to celebrate the 60th birthday of the three Series of the 250 GTE.
Download or read book Ferrari Fever written by Marc Sonnery and published by . This book was released on 2014-01-31 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ferrari Fever is a fascinating and nostalgic look back at the classic car collecting scene in the 60's and 70's, an era when some of the rarest and most interesting Italian automobiles could still be found hidden or languishing in barns, junkyards or by the side of the road...almost lost in time. Paul Schouwenburg s story begins in wartime occupied Amsterdam, a poignant backdrop to the hardships of the years to follow, when the appearance of any exotic Italian thoroughbred was a rare sight indeed. Fuelled by a fascination for all things mechanical, adventures on a Rudge bicycle and early experiences in his parents succession of Rovers, Paul gains a burning passion for finding, restoring, and ultimately racing Italian cars. But these were not just any Italian cars -from the early 60s onwards, he begins to uncover several rare Alfas, from 1900CSS Zagato to Tipo 33/2, in addition to a host of very special Ferraris, including a 250GTO, 340 America Touring, 250 MM Vignale Berlinetta, 250GT SWB Competition/61 and 275GTB/C/LM, usually by word of mouth or tenuous rumour. Having acquired them, often many different models at a time, he would drive them home across Europe through snow storms, and restore them single-handedly in his spare time, full-time job as a world-leading head and neck cancer surgeon permitting! If that wasn t exciting enough, he would then race them, often winning, before moving on to the next irresistible project. Filled with rich anecdotes and rare insights into the colourful characters of the day, including Jacques Swaters and Rob de la Rive Box, Paul s passion and incredible drive make for exciting reading. Indeed this is a unique take, a look in the rear view mirror at a bygone era when gems could be found incredibly cheaply and enthusiasts took seat-of-the-pants decisions regarding many aspects of a hobby which was uncharted, innocent and simply not as commercial as today he couldn t even give away his 250 GTO at the time!

Download or read book Rebel Rebel written by Marc Sonnery and published by Parker House Publishing Incorporated,Csi. This book was released on 2010-05-27 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 1960. And Ferrari was at the top of its game - all- conquering in Formula 1, sports car and GT endurance racing. In 1961, in GT endurance races (example: Le Mans 24 Hours), the Ferrari 250GT SWB was the winning car by a country mile. For 1962 along came the mighty 250 GTO, arguably Ferrari's finest car of all time. But to buy a GTO you had to be on Enzo Ferrari's personal list. Wealthy racer Count Volpi of the Scuderia Serenisssima Republica Di Venezia was struck- off that list when found to be also in bed with the enemy: the upstart ATS, formed by newly fired Ferrari employees. No GTO for Volpi! So he built his own. This is the story. Volpi's GTO was a one-off re-work of a 250 GT, serial number 2819, clothed in the most outrageous, voluptuous body culminating at the rear with a dramatic, foreshortened, vertical Kamm-tail. Hence breadvan". Little has been written about this dramatic car and much of what has, is simple supposition and rumour. This book tells a new oral story that spans the globe; full of intrigue and drama. Sonnery has interviewed all the players, designers, builders, drivers, owners and Volpi himself.
