    Coys have/ had listed this car, wow it's ugly [just my impression]
    Info from their web-site below

    1969 Ferrari 365 GT Nart Spyder
    Chassis Number: 12605
    Engine number: 245

    Offered here is one of the only two cars to have ever been produced, built by Carrozzeria Autosport of Bachelli & Villa in Bastiglia near Modena to a design of Luigi Chinetti Junior.

    Nart stands for North American Racing Team, and was created by Luigi Chinetti to promote the Ferrari marque in America through success in Gran Turismo (endurance) motorsport.

    It was created in 1958 when Chinetti received backing from wealthy racers George Arents and Jan de Vroom. Ferrari already had a close relationship with Chinetti due to his success in selling the maker's road cars in the important American markets, and thus NART received a continuous line of excellent Ferrari racers.

    This is a very original car, with great condition leather seats and interior, given that it is such a low mileage car, at only 3,800km.
    Powered by Ferraris 340hp, 4,390cc twin overhead cam all-alloy V12 with triple Weber downdraft twin choke carburetors, five-speed manual gearbox, four-wheel independent suspension and four-wheel disc brakes.
    This car has been in Germany for a number of years, and now takes a prominent place in our showroom in Richmond.

    This car is in original condition and would make a great investment, given the rarity of this car.

    Due to the rare nature of this car, and the importance of it in Ferraris timeline, the car has been hand crafted in model form, in 1/43 scale.

    This car has been used at the 10th Modena Motorsport track day. This car would make a very important addition to an existing collection, or could also be used as a frequent driver as it runs and drives absolutely beautifully.

    The video says only two were ever built - I'm not surprised, It is unbelievably ugly!
    Is there some confusion in the video? There were 10 of the ORIGINAL 275GTB/4 NART, which were built by Scaglietti in Italy on his production line at the request of Luigi Chinetti (senior). This 365 was converted in Italy according to the advert but, perhaps, America according to the video. The video claims a 4.5 litre engine but the advert more correctly puts it at 4390cc. Or am I just being picky because I don't like it.
