    I just bought a very early 89 348 tb

    Rosso corsa / nero
    VIN 82537
    with the car i got a paper stating:
    Production date: 13/09/1989
    Finishing date: 20/11/1989

    the car first owner was Giuseppe Neri, former owner of CAVALLINO restaurant and personal Enzo Ferrari friend

    he had a building company that was responsible for most of the buildings at factory in Maranello

    https://www.marioneri.it/edilizia/

    car has little over 40k kms first paint for 90% and still on original MOdena plates

    Neri personal collection of Ferrari automobilia and parts was sold few time ago by Artcurial auctions

    https://www.artcurial.com/en/sale-4099-automobilia-including-former-collection-giuseppe-neri-friend-enzo-ferrari

    unfortunately he passed away few years ago but looks like the car he got was one of the early VINs

    somebody knows what is the earlies VIN known ? which delivery date?





    i post 2 pics of Giuseppe Neri and Enzo at his 90th birthday at Cavallino restaurant

    Any other pics? You can get an idea where your build was from the rear shock tower on the left. There will be a matching pair of stamped numbers.

    82589 is #28 (this stamping isn't 100% accurate, I don't think, but it's close)

    79908 is the first one. I have pictures of 30 cars before yours.

    I have been told it is a preseries car; later sold to a VIP customer since there was a LONG waiting list for 348s in 89
