Golden Fantuzzi-Bodied Spyder (4381 SA, 0808 TR, 8733)

I scanned some of my slides and discovered this gem. It was taken in 1966 in Monaco across from the Casino. I am not sure what the owner had created.

Beautiful picture !! This is the 330 LM Berlinetta s/n 4381SA with a new spider body done by Fantuzzi in 1964.

 

Is that the car used in "Spirits of the Dead"? I recall that it was a gold Spyder with a hoop behind the cockpit.

Very Cool!!!

 

It's awesome to see a 40 year old picture from Monaco And the 330 LM Berlinetta is a one of a kind FCar too. Great thread.

 

So this car has 330LMB coachwork again? That's how I understand the information on Barchetta.

The body today looks suspect to me. The question is :

Is it really the original Scaglietti body on the car today ??

 

Always to my amazement, you guys are GOOD! Aardy, you are the MAN!

Where is the car today? Any recent history of it?

Ciao...Paolo

 

Interesting looking F car, must say colour doesnt realyl flatter the lines but shape gives an idea that it was pretty leight weight or at least thats the impresion I get.

 

My guess is that they are not the original panels, unless the owner had the foresight to preserve the original body.

Having seen 330LMBs in action I would think that rebodied car was pretty flexy unless the chassis was stiffened before the new bodywork went on.

Paolo, the car must be still in UK todays.

Jack, I saw the car in Tour Auto event. The shape of the body didn't look right. Probably a replica body on it or something else...

 

lets see you ID the big American sled to the right of the DS parked above the Ferrari......

mid-60s Chrysler NY/Dodge Polara?



(and yes I know, who cares?)

 

Awesome ! please post more pics from those days ??

 

The car parked to the right of the DS looks like a Mercedes Benz ??

 

Fantastic photo, i would love to see more if you have any.

 

what year was it? i was on 2007 last two legs and there wasn't any sight of it, from what i saw on intenaire it wasn't there too

 

I saw it in year 2000 if I remember well. It was also at Le Mans in 00's.

And you can often see it at Goodwood...

 

That is a very cool Ferrari.

The lines on the car somehow reminds me of the equally cool Drogo bodied 2423GT.

 

Also reminds me of the gran sport racing vettes from 63.

I need to upgrade to a bigger screen.........

 

I had posted this photo earlier on a different thread. It was taken at The Philadelphia Ferrari Festival around 1979.

I thank you for all the knowledge you people have. I enjoy researching motor racing vehicles from the 50s, 60s and 70s. My main focus is Shelby and Ford vehicles, however I have learned to appreciate the Ferrari from the mid sixties races with Shelby. I had the good fortune of being in Germany during these hey days and attended races at Nurburgring, Reims, and Spa. Unfortunatley I seldom dragged a camera along. I have scanned some slides from 1964 Grand Prix of Germany and the 1000km race at Nurburgring in 1965. I would be happy to share but they are not the best quality ( 43 years old)
enjoy and thanks for the imfo
