Yes, and this absolutely isn't one of the early "flat cowl" cars in chassis number range 0428M-0470MD - eventually followed by the first version...
Paint is cheap, you can always find me another mid-series car having a flat cowl in 1955! I recently looked into it and couldn't.
Flat cowl makes me think of the Scaglietti renumbered as 0424MD. Had a wide windscreen and twin headrests installed for 1955 Liege-Rome-Liege...
Probably run to opposite directions, S=sinistra, D=destra. At least Marelli generators are coded that way.
Are you presuming based on what is standard for normal production or do you have period photos of this particular car? I have no idea what is...
So could be anything really. Classiche charges big bucks for their papal blessings that don't really need to be based on anything. It really...
I noticed that somebody has removed extra gauges in the instrument cluster between 2012 and 2020. I have no idea what is correct - i.e. if that...
Both are red with black interior and have chromed side vents. The basic difference still remains: one is a S.1 and the other is a S.2.

Incomparable - had to use google translate for that. That transparent plus some others were auctioned for more than 10 years ago. Cars were...
Hmm, "NS" on register plate likely stands for Nassau County then.
Here's Kerry's link to 9083. Apparently still a 2+2 when with your father, then Chinetti had it converted into a special show car by Michelotti....
It's been in those colors forever. Can you confirm your father was James F. Cear in Malverne, NY/USA? I show him owning 330GT 9083 and 250GT...
Early first series series cars were delivered with no fog lights. Mounting points and wiring was all there, and a switch, so many cars went back...
Intake limits the redline on these engines. With air filter assembly they'll rev little over 7000, with trumpets (velocity stacks) around 8000 or...
How about 0534MD with big side vent...? At least 10 Monzas and Mondials come back to factory with various issues - and then 6-silindri and...
Must be around mid-70s, when sold to Reinhard Sammüller. I think it was already repainted red by 1979 and soon registered as "M-JA 3000" (Munich).
Protective nose taping seen in Stead AFB 18/oct/53 has just been removed.
