    Using Ferrari's nomenclature from the time, they *should* be 275LMs.

    Using Ferrari's nomenclature from the time, they *are* 250LMs.

    The *why* is important to the history of the model.

    In other words, it's not an opinion... it's a historical reach.

    You can see a Cegga from Claude and Georges Gachnang from Aigle Switzerland.
    The car was originally a 250 TR 58 S.N. 0742 also modified with a indipendent rear suspension.
    The photo shows Georges Gachnang 1961 on the Nürburgring.

    Sebring 1964, I believe this is the only time a 250 motor was used in competition in the new 250LM. Unfortunately the car caught fire during the race and did not finish.

    Although clear as mud, looking into it, it is stated that the 275 3.3 litre engine had been fitted in 5149 by this time, some stating it was fitted at the time of Daytona in February, 1964.

    What is the sticker inside the white body stripe below the engine air intake? I am not familiar with that? Race team/product sponsorship? Can barely make out the prancing horse….

    The Prancing Horse is actually a NART sticker and not a Scuderia Ferrari Shield.
    NART gave Goodyear their first LeMans victory in 1965. The sticker you mention reminds me of a Jamaican flag
