Introduced at the 1966 Paris Motor Show, it was the final and most highly developed evolution of the celebrated 275 series. Its 3.3-liter Colombo V12 featured four overhead camshafts inspired by Ferrari's competition engines and produced approximately 300 horsepower. Paired with a five-speed rear-mounted transaxle, fully independent suspension, and four-wheel disc brakes, the GTB/4 combined exceptional performance with the balance and refinement expected of Ferrari's finest grand tourers.Factory-built 275 GTS/4 NART Spyders are among the most valuable and recognizable Ferraris ever produced. Created at the request of influential American importer Luigi Chinetti, only ten were constructed by Ferrari and Scaglietti. Their open coachwork, competition-derived mechanicals, and extraordinary rarity established a design that has remained captivating for more than half a century.Chassis 10473 was not one of those ten factory-built NART Spyders. It began life as a 275 GTB/4 Berlinetta and was later converted to its present NART Spyder-style configuration.According to historical records, chassis 10473 was sent to Carrozzeria Scaglietti in Modena in July 1967. Engine assembly and final factory completion followed that October. Identified by assembly sequence number 243 and body number 0246, the Ferrari was originally finished in the sophisticated combination of Grigio Notte 106-E-28 over Rosso 3171 upholstery and was delivered new to its first owner, Cossio of Udine, Italy.Factory service records document visits to Ferrari's Assistenza Clienti facility in Modena in September 1968. The car remained in Italy until 1970, when it was exported to the United States. By 1975, it was owned by Robert Gingold of Great Neck, New York, and later passed to Walt McCune of Los Angeles before entering long-term Southern California ownership in 1985.During the late 1980s, chassis 10473 was transformed into its present open configuration by Mike McCluskey, the highly regarded California craftsman known for his work restoring significant Shelby Cobras and other important sports cars. The conversion incorporated carefully formed metalwork intended to capture the elegant proportions and purposeful character of the original Scaglietti-built NART Spyder. The engine and suspension were also attended to by Bruno Bori of Modena Sports Cars.More than a static collection piece, chassis 10473 has also been enjoyed as intended. Historical records document multiple appearances at the Colorado Grand during the early and mid-1990s, demonstrating the usability and grand-touring character that have long distinguished the 275 platform.Chassis 10473 offers an opportunity to experience the celebrated quad-cam Ferrari V12 in one of the most evocative open configurations of the period. Combining documented history, respected craftsmanship, timeless Pininfarina design, and the sound and performance of Ferrari's legendary Colombo V12, this 275 GTB/4 NART Spyder Conversion is a compelling choice for the enthusiast seeking an important vintage Ferrari that can be shown, toured, and enjoyed.
