Giorgetto Giugiaro and a coachworker stand next to the wooden buck of the 1962 Ferrari 250 GT SWB by Bertone. Chassis nº 3269GT, one-off body.

“This Ferrari 250 GT SWB #3269GT is one of two Ferraris 250 GT to recieve bodywork by Bertone. Nuccio Bertone decided that he would dedicate the design to himself, because this special 250 GT SWB had to become his personal car. Bertone simply did not want to drive a Ferrari with anyone else’s coachwork.”

Ferrari 400 Superamerica Cabriolet SWB/Bonneville Speed Trials/1962

”The car, which has a diminutive 95-inch wheelbase, was originally purchased in Arizona in 1962. Its first owner brought the V12 convertible to the Bonneville Speed Trials.

The 400 Superamerica was powered by a 4.0-liter Gioachino designed V12 engine that delivered 340 hp at 7000 rpm. The engine was coupled to a 4-speed, all synchromesh gearbox, fitted with an electronic overdrive unit on top gear, driving through a universally jointed propeller shaft to a rigid rear axle. The 0 to 60 mph sprint was made in 9.2 seconds, while top speed went up to 174 mph.” via
