    The 355F1 GT caught my attention when a fellow chatter (Robb) posted a picture of this car during his resent visit to Maranello. Seems to be very little information about this model on the web. Maybe someone here has some info?

    Did find some pictures of the GT but apparently not a F1. For instance this front bumper, factory made? Saw it on 3 different cars, but not on the one which is in the Ferrari museum in Maranello.

    I think this is a different car or then they changed the engine. One had a Judd V8 and the other one a Zytek V8. Both built for hill climb though. Here are a few more with the same front, well almost the same.

    OK so the the bumper on the pictures aren't part of the Competizione / GT package, any idea from where these are?

    No, back in the 90's there was an italian Company who produced those bumpers. there was a 355 also in the BPR Serie and the two ex Mastercar 355 had the same one. Factory Racing department was never involved in the GT Race series with the 355. The White and Orange "judd" 355 was build by Rene Ruch, sportgarage Ruch in Switzerland who also raced a few high climb races with it. I dont know from where he gets the parts but maybe you can just call and ask :)
