1967 Ferrari 330 GTS Vanished from the Public Eye for Five Decades
This 1967 Ferrari 330 GTS is an extremely original matching numbers
example just out of 50 year ownership. It's been tucked away and
hidden from the public eye for five decades. It may very well be
the last unknown 330 GTS in existence. Red with tan leather
interior. A preservation class car that would benefit from
mechanical commissioning at this time. In 1969, the recently
married previous owner picked up a Road and Track magazine and saw
a 330 GTS advertised in Milan, Italy. She asked her husband to go
to Italy to buy the car as a honeymoon gift to which he agreed and
they imported the car back to the United States. In the early
1970's, she parked the car in their California garage and left it
alone hidden away from the rest of the world. As the saying goes,
it is only original once. This is the most honest and original 330
GTS one will ever find.The 330 GTS was designed with the intention
of providing Ferrari?s best customers with the finest open-top
motoring experience that money could buy. Fast, elegant, and
practical, the 330 GTS left its lucky owners wanting for nothing
and solidified Ferrari?s reputation as the finest builder of grand
touring cars. The Colombo-designed V-12 powerplant displaced four
liters and was fed by three triple-choke Weber DCZ/6 carburetors.
Period tests found the mill capable of 300 horsepower at 7,000 rpm
and 244 pound-feet of torque at 5,000 rpm. The increased power
enabled a 0-60 mph sprint of around six seconds and a top speed
approaching 150 mph. Only 99 examples were built when production
concluded in late 1968 compared to nearly 600 coupe versions,
making it considerably rarer than its closed counterpart. This
Ferrari 330 GTS is one of our most significant discoveries. One of
just 99 examples produced Vanished from public eye for five decades
