Accompanied by a detailed Dino Compendium report from Matthias Bartz, this U.S. specification 1972 Ferrari 246 GTS represents a unique and historically documented example. Completed on August 30, 1972, chassis 03996 was delivered new through Chinetti-Garthwaite Import Inc. in the United States.
Finished in its original and elegant color combination of Rosso Chiaro (20-R-190) over Beige VM3218 leather, the car was factory-equipped with power windows, air conditioning, and a leather interior. According to Bartz?s documentation, this Dino has remained under single ownership from new, retained by Vimco Concrete Accessories Inc. of King of Prussia, Pennsylvania, from 1972 through 2025.
Remarkably well-preserved, it still runs and drives, though it has been in long-term storage and would benefit from a full servicing before regular road use. Interestingly, it features an upgraded Lancia Stratos 2.4-liter V6 engine and transmission. An exciting period modification that mirrors the Dino?s own mechanical lineage while delivering noticeably higher performance.
With its one-owner provenance, original color combination, and documented history by Matthias Bartz, this example presents an outstanding opportunity for sympathetic restoration, preservation, or spirited enjoyment.
