330 GTS created from 330 GTC what is it worth?

would ge good as a member here since about 2 years and your first post if you could introduce yourslef a little an dfill out your profile more than just now. thx

I would say it is not more worth than the original 330 GTC

 

what???
a 330 GTC 2.2 millions???
I doubt ! ! !

 

Road Show Auto Sales have the chassis number 10375 wrong in the description here as that is a real 330 GTS. Chassis 10375 details here.

This 330 GTC has not been rebodied, unless they've actually used a 330 GT 2+2 rather than a 330 GTC, but just cut the roof off, and added a 250 California like windscreen with hardly any surrounding support for it.

 

I have written: same price like the original 330 GTC, have nothing written from a GTS

 

With out speaking to this car, I would suggest you look at photos of a real 330 convertible and this vehicle.

Lot’s of things to consider.

After looking at the not-very-revealing pictures, I’d say it’s worth much less than the”donor” car, if in fact it was a 330GTC.

Guy with Sawzall: “Here’s what Pininfarina shoulda done. Hold muh beer.”

 

I guess they've changed the chassis number because it says 9837.

What's with the enormous fuel filler cap?

Personally I think it looks truly awful. Why buy a classic Ferrari that looks like a replica?

 

Totally agree Jonathan, to me it is worth what a 330GTC would be worth less the cost to restore to something that resembles something other than a kit car.

 

Yes, they have now definitely changed the chassis number from 10375 to 9837.

 

Well, my peanut gallery take on its investment value/worth would be something like this (similar to that of Matthews):

$900K minus “average”(?) value of a decent-to-good 330 GTC (lets say $500K-$600K) minus the costs required to bring it back up to a 330 GTC (or whichever model it was born as ?) worth $500K-$600K, although this current episode in the poor cars life may prove less than ideal for its “investment”(?) potential.

YMMV

 

This should be worth less than a 330 GTC.

 

Much less.

 

Abomination.
This 'thing' is worth less than a wrecked, burned, and drowned 330 GTC on its way to the crusher.......
Whoever did this should have their bondo scraper taken away!
Barely qualifies for the "crappy replicas" thread.....

 

Besides the engine. There is no upside on this abomination.

 

It’s worth whatever the mechanicals are worth.

It would make an interesting Testa Rossa. No point in doing much more with it now.

Sad.

Respectfully disagree !
Making it into yet another fakeydo TR wouldn't be less sad, let alone an improvement. If anything, it would likely cause additional butchery leading the poor car even further away from its DNA/lineage, not to mention more difficult to correct.

I know not all cars can or are meant to be saved, but this one is still within realm of reasonable(?) possibilities.

 

There was one for sale in the FML about 2 month ago. I believe the car was done by Beckman from southercal, for a gentleman Paul Forbes. I dont know if the car was finished, but he did acquire early on all the specific GTS items to convert a GTC to a GTS. According to Paul, the doors and A pillar frames are different - slope of the A pillar, window trim is different among a few items that i remember him telling me. I never saw the car, just talked about it with Paul.

 

I believe that the DNA is in the Columbo V-12 and other mechanicals, not the sheetmetal.

But I also believe I’m pretty alone in this.

I ran a 330 2+2 for several years. I left it quite stock. But I have no problem buying an already rebodied car. I sure wouldn’t rebody a perfectly good car. But I would put this senescent nag out of its misery.

Image Unavailable, Please Login Image Unavailable, Please Login Here are some photos of a properly converted 330GTC into a 330GTS. All the parts used for the conversion were factory parts. Its a difficult conversion that was done with Steve Beckman's help and skill. Car is availible if anyone is interested. Just PM me.

 

Norbert, has the drivetrain been redone and interior as well?

Assume this is the current state of the car?

 

This car is just wrong. Far, far too long a wheelbase for a GTC. Much more likely built on the chassis of a 330GT2+2. I owned a 330/365GTC for almost thirty years and a 330GT2+2 for a shorter time.

Candidly I would not buy this car at any price. I wouldn't want to drive it and wouldn't want it in my garage. IMHO it's an ugly bastardized mockup of two great Ferraris. $900K is a very bad joke.

 

The car originally started life as a Ferrari 330GTC. The front nose is unaltered as its identical to a 330GTS. The doors, rear decklid and convertible top frame are original Ferrari parts. The tops of the rear fenders where copied off an original 330GTS I was restoring. Car does run but we are currently servicing the fuel system including carburaters and fuel pumps, fuel filters, spark plugs and wires. We are also rebuilding the brakes so it can be driven and stops under its own power.
