In late 1955, Pinin Farina began work on a new design for the 250 GT and nine chassis were sent to the coachbuilder to receive the new body. There was not enough space for all of the cars so Carrozeria Voano completed six of them, one of which is seen here. One of fourteen alloys, 0447 GT was delivered new to Maestro Guido Cartelli, director of La Scala in Milan. A few months later he was tragically killed in a plane crash and the essentially unused 250 GT was sent to Luigi Chinetti for sale in America. It has since been a part of some of the world’s greagallery.adamsviews.net/artofsteel2015/ Ferrari collections. This #0447 GT features a matching number engine, a full history from Marcel Massini, and was treated to a full restoration.
