2+2 is a matching numbers car and one of just 809 Ferrari 365 GT
2+2's built. It wears a fantastic color combination Aubergine with

It's been a west coast car most of its life and has been well cared
for over the years. It comes accompanied by records dating back to
1976. The car also comes with its original manual, parts books,
tool roll with some tools, jack bag with hammer and aftermarket
jack, and spare.The car drives fantastic and the motor sounds
amazing with great power. The transmission is smooth with good
second gear synchro. Brakes stop the car evenly and effectively,
the front suspension feels tight, and the car tracks straight. At
58k miles, the engine was removed and rebuilt by G. Westbrook of
Atlanta, Ga. At 64k miles, the wheels bearings were replaced and
some of the front suspension restored. In 1987 the gearbox was
rebuilt. Alternator and power steering belts were replaced in 1997.
Front suspension was rebuilt in 1998, at which point new springs
and shocks were installed. Distributors were rebuilt by Patrick
Ottis in 1999, and a valve adjustment was done at this time as
well. The radiator was also recored in 1999. In 2000, the ring and
pinion were replaced, and differential rebuilt by Patrick Ottis. At
76k miles, Mr. Ottis performed a compression test which revealed
the following results: 180, 175, 155, 180, 175, 175, 180, 185, 185,
175, 185, and 180 lbs. In total, receipts over $40k. The car
currently has 85k miles.The body is straight overall but the new
owner might consider repainting the car as there are several small
rock chips from it being driven and enjoyed. The car wears nice
chrome and Borrani wire wheels with Pirelli P400 tires. The
interior is very nice with original leather and the front and rear
seats are good considering their age and mileage. The headliner,
dash wood, factory wood wheel, and original gauges and switches are
in very nice condition as well.The 365 GT 2+2 was introduced at the
Paris Salon in 1967, and it was the largest and most luxurious
Ferrari model to date, carrying forward the growing demand for
high-speed transport with accommodation for up to four passengers.
Its low-slung fastback design was created and constructed by
Pininfarina. Gullwing Motor Cars is proud to offer this wonderful
example of Ferrari's ideal grand tourer.Price: $167,500
