    For purchase is this late production 1977 (titled as a '78) 512 Berlinetta Boxer with less than 16,000 miles.

    After it left the factory, it was shipped to Maranello Concessionaires Ltd in London to be sold to its original owner on February 13, 1978. After spending only about 1.5 years in the UK, it was then purchased by its 2nd owner, and shipped to Shrewsbury, New Jersey and received its NJ Title on July 20, 1979.

    It appears to be in mostly, if not all original condition. While not quite a concours car, it is definitely a great driving and looking 512. It's last owner was in the Greenville, SC area and it received a $9k+ Major Service less than a year ago. Comes with South Carolina Title.

    Comes with original tool kit with Everest tools (missing one screwdriver), all original manuals, and receipts dating years back.

    Asking $385,000 USD.

    Great carburated 512, wish I could buy it, unfortunately I'm not on the market until I finish the new construction (already 2times the original estimate).

    3rd: Shrewsbury, New Jersey (late '90's - mid '00's)
    4th: Greenville, South Carolina (mid '00's - 2016)

    I have the records from '92 - Current.

    Yes good eye. I noticed that as well after posting the pic. Damn little things have a tendency to disappear over 40 years :/

    Actually, after going over it again, it was on the lower half of the kit to the left of the light bulbs i believe. I will confirm when i am up at the garage again this weekend.

    What a magnificent example of the last analog Ferrari! Just the right amount of patina.

    Has it been Federalized, or did it manage to avoid modifications?

    Thank you! It was federalized by Amerispec when it came to the U.S. but the Euro bumpers were put back on and the only other thing i noticed is an air pump for smog, which does not have a belt on it, and can be taken off at the buyers discretion.

    I have the missing screwdriver, too...

    :D :D :D

    Very nice...I guess this is my "second chance" for a 1977, to match my other Ferrari.

    This one looks far superior, to my first candidate!

    Thank you! It really is amazing how smooth these Boxer 12's are as well. Like a sewing machine.

    Thanks Tex! Yes, this one is pretty cool. Could drive it regularly, if you desired. I hate to sell it, but sometimes capital is needed for business ventures. :/ Will definitely be kicking myself if these are selling for close to a mill in the next 4-8 years.

    Well, I have been around a long time...

    When I bought my 308GTBs, there was a racing version BB/LM, for $375K.

    It's all relative and I do agree it's about priorities.
    :D :D :D

    I passed on #19271 at $90K.
    Someone put $200K into it, (my estimate)and now, it's nice.....

    You can't drive a portfolio, but it's hard to sleep in a Ferrari!

    Thank you for the commentary, but this is a personal vehicle, not a dealer sale.
