This amazingly rare 206 GT is only 1 of 152 ever made. The
production Dino 206 GT was designed by Leonardo Fioravanti at
Pininfarina[3] and built by Scaglietti.[4] It had the soft edges
and curving lines typical of earlier Italian cars, unlike its
angular successor, the Marcello Gandini designed 308 GT4, which had
the straighter lines and sharp edges seen most boldly in Gandini's
later Fiat X1/9. The 206 GT used a transverse-mounted 2.0 L
all-aluminum, 160 hp (119 kW) at the 8,000 rpm redline, 65-degree
V6 engine with dual overhead camshafts and a 9.7:1 compression
ratio. Torque was 138 lbs/ft at 6,500 rpm. The crankshaft featured
four main bearings. Induction was via three Weber 40 DCN/4 2-barrel
carburetors. The 206 GT was the first car sold by Ferrari which
used an electronic ignition, a Dinoplex C capacitive discharge
ignition system that was developed by Magneti Marelli for the high
revving Dino V6 engine (hence the name Dinoplex).[5] It was also
the first Ferrari product to have a direct rack-and-pinion
steering.[4] The 206 GT frame featured a light-weight, 1980 pound,
aluminium body, full independent suspension, and all round disc
brakes. The 206 GT had a 90.0-inch (2,290 mm) wheelbase. The 206
had a top speed of 146 mph (235 km/h). 152 were built in total
during 1968 and 1969, in left hand drive only. This automobile has
just had a full frame off restoration officially from Ferrari. ITs
is ready for a new home here in the United States. The car is
currently in Italy. - AM/FM, Full Leather Interior Surface -
