that looks beautiful!

 

Very pretty little car and the garage looks not-bad either!

 

Hello there,

I realize this is an old chat, but would like to know if you would like to contribute your car information to the registry of the Ferrari 365 GT 2+2 that has been posted here on Ferrarichat. Ideally if you could provide, year, vin, color (what it was and what it became) interior color (what it was and what it became), wheels type, model type it would be fantastic. If you are up to sharing a few more picture it would be great.

Thank you,
Stefano

 

Thank you Sir! Duly noted and logged. Is the car still in the UK? I very much appreciate the pictures. If you want to share additional pictures and facts, you may always do so via pm, or at my email address.

Ok, thank you Marcel. Also, this should be a RHD, but is it?

What most people don't know is that Pininfarina used names of thoroughbred race horses for some of their colors. Le Sancy was a race horse from France, born 1884.
Argento Metallizzato 2.443.009 and Grigio Argento 2.443.009 and Grigio Le Sancy 2.443.009 is basically all the same.

Race horse names used by Pininfarina and the factory for colors in the 1960s and early 1970s included:
Gladiateur (Azzurro Gladiateur), Le Sancy, Dark Ronald (Nero Dark Ronald), The Tetrarch (Avorio The Tetrarch), Tetratema (Bianco Tetratema), Gainsborough (Celeste Gainsboroguh), Man O'War (Giallo Man O'War), Blanford (Viola Blandford Stalvert), Colorado (Marrone Colorado), Ortello (Grigio Ortello), Blenheim II (Verde Blenheim), Tourbillon (Blu Tourbillon), Hyperion (Azzurro Hyperion), Bahram (Verde Bahram), Mahmoud (Grigio Mahmoud), Nearco (Rosso Nearco), Bull Lea (Amaranto Bull Lea), Nasrullah (Oro Nasrullah), Caracalla (Blu Caracalla), Ribot (Blu Ribot), and many many others.

Race horses came from France, Ireland, Great Britain, USA, Italy, Canada, Venezuela and were born between 1862 and 1969.
