Ferrari's 330 GTC was a svelte, high-speed Grand Touring coupe for
two with a luxurious and remarkably spacious passenger compartment.
Pininfarina designed and built the subtly elegant bodywork with
styling a masterful combination of the best elements of the 500
Superfast and 275 GTS. The light, airy roof utilized exceptionally
thin pillars and offered remarkably good visibility; this feature
was unique to the 330 GTC. Outstanding power output was provided by
the Colombo-derived Tipo 209 SOHC four-liter V-12 engine delivering
300 factory-rated horsepower with triple Weber twin-choke
carburetors. The 330 GTC delivered near-perfect balance and
excellent handling characteristics that continue to be renowned by
true Ferrari driving enthusiasts today.
Numbered 09547, this 330 GTC is listed in Hilary A. Raab's Ferrari
Serial Numbers Part I and accompanied by history compiled by
Ferrari marque expert Marcel Massini confirming it was an original
left-hand drive, European version factory-equipped with air
conditioning and finished in Grigio Scuro Sintetico (Dark Grey)
over Rosso (Red) leather. It was car number 179 in terms of
assembly sequence, with completion in February of 1967. In March
1967, the 330 was purchased new by local resident, Fausto Crespi of
Milan, through official dealer M. Gastone Crepaldi. It is recorded
that Luigi Chinetti Motors paid M. G. Crepaldi for repairs to the
car (LCM check), it was then exported from Italy to the USA. In the
early 1970's 9547 was owned by Mrs. Esther R. Stiles of Miami and
was later acquired by another Miami female Ferrari enthusiast, Mrs.
Frances M. Farina, an attorney. A copy of the 1980 membership
roster with Mrs. Farina next to her beautiful Ferrari is included
in the car's dossier. 9547 was eventually passed to Dennis Keck and
William Carrey. In March 2018 Marcel Massini checked internal
engine block number #2402 with engineer Franco Scaletti of Ferrari
Classiche in Maranello, confirming the number is correct and
matching.
Since 2010, RPM of Vermont has serviced and refreshed many of the
Ferrari's mechanical systems, including the starter, clutch
auxiliary components, water pump, brakes (2016: booster, calipers,
and hoses, booster), air conditioning system, fuel delivery,
ignition and much more. Additionally, in 2018, the 330 received
correct new Michelin XWX tires and ANSA exhaust system, as well as
scheduled tuning, upkeep and maintenance. The original engine was
rebuilt by Dick Debiasse of Dark Horse Inc Ferrari Restorations 6k
miles ago and performs exceptionally well with plenty of pep for
short jaunts or distance touring. Compression is strong and
consistent through all 12 cylinders. A service file of recent
records accompany, along with original spare parts catalog and
Blaupunkt New Yorker manuals in leather folio.
A particularly honest and solid car, the 330's colors were
exchanged to the current livery decades ago and have now matured
very gracefully for its age. The exterior's lacquer paint displays
spider webbing (most notably across the nose) but overall an
attractive patina, while the cabin's upholstery has been
thoughtfully preserved with a great presentation. Correct
paratrooper seat belts, luggage straps and Blaupunkt radio
compliment. All lights, gauges and electronics appear in proper
working order. Original glass remains fitted, including the
windshield, trim and lenses. Evidence of original paint can be
found in several discreet areas, along with Pininfarina body number
stampings on the bonnet, rear trunk boot, and trunk floor under the
spare. The body displays excellent lines, gaps and panel
fitment.
With ideal "drivers" cosmetics paired to extraordinary mechanical
prowess, this particular 330 GTC is perfectly suited to enjoy
as-is, and highly capable for vintage touring right out of the box,
while optionally providing a superb base to take back to its
stunning original colors. GTCs are likely the most capable "Enzo
Era" V-12 Ferrari Grand Touring models ever produced, we offer this
exceptional example, chassis number 9547 for immediate worldwide
purchase and delivery from our Houston, Texas showroom.
