More Old Photos

Very cool pictures. These show 375F1 Indy s/n 0388, which was renumbered from 01. Car was with Dieter Hilterbosch from 1964 until 1997, then was sold to Symbolic who resold the car to Michael Mak, who was the last known and maybe present owner. Attached are two pictures I took of the car when it was at Symbolic in 2001. (I hope people will forgive me for posting non-vintage photos)

My family purchased 250 GTO #3647 (#74) In 1966 or 1967 From Luigi Chinetti along with a Lusso. My father sold the car to Bob Sowers of Somers, Conneticutt. At the time he thought he was making a huge profit on the car and recalls selling it for $9800.

During their ownership him and his father went to a New England Ford Dealership who was displaying a Ford Gt40. As soon as they arrived in the GTO everyone in the dealership ran out to see the Ferrari. : )

Upon selling the car to Bob Sowers, my father made a deal for Bob Sowers to sell him his XKE that was on order. A special ordered 1967 FHC Dark Metallic Green with Black interior. We still own the XKE today.

I probablly have some original pictures of the GTO somewhere, i will look tonight.

 

Hi,

Interesting story, what was your father's name? (family name?) In Keith Bluemel's GTO book he lists the car has coming from Tom Meade in Modena and going to Robert Sauers in 1966. Sauers then sold the car to James McNeil Jr. in 1967, who still owns it to this day. I guess we can insert your father's name into that ownership chain and I assume Chinetti got the car from Meade, which would not be surprising. Thanks for your help

As it turns out my post back in #118 was incorrect. I emailed American Racing guru David Seielstad and he confirmed that the 500TRC that David Castelhano showed in his picture with #32 was actually s/n 0668MDTR driven at the Lime Rock, CT USAC on September 7, 1958 by Alan Markelson. George Arents did not enter his 500TRC s/n 0658MDTR at Lime Rock in 1958, to the best of David's or my knowledge. Sorry if my earlier post caused any confusion

Jan or somebody :

could you post a bigger picture of the pic in post 172 or say me in which book you found it ??

MANY THANKS in advance

 

Hello Cyril,

I'll try to make a better scan tomorrow. The picture is from the Monza 1966 yearbook. There is also a nice picture in the book 1000 km di Monza.

 

I have the 1000 km di Monza book but your pic shows a better view of the start.
THANK YOU VERY MUCH in advance for your better scan Jan.

 

This is the biggest I could do but it's less sharp.

Another excellent piece of history to insert in the link of info.
Thanks for that information, and i too would love to see some of the photos from your family ownership

 

Jan,

You wrote :
"My Mondial is on the fourth row on the left (56) driven by Luigi Taramazzo who finished 2nd IC and 8th OA."

In fact, your Mondial is on the fifth row, completely at right on the picture, just behind the number 50".

You can also find a good pic on page 20 of the 1000 km di Monza book : your car is just behind the number 14.

MANY THANKS for the Supercortemaggiore's pic.

The Ferrari barchetta in the upper left looks like it has Motto coachwork. Do you have the S/N for that car by any chance?

 

Cyril,
I thought at right on row five it was n° 58 and left on row four number 56 also becauce of the helmet of Taramazzo and the windscreen as on the 1955 MM picture. But it's hard to see and maybe you have better eyes. Thanks for all the numbers on the picture

Yes I think it's Gendebien in #2845GT entered by Scuderia Serenissima and finished 16th

 

We sold it to Tom Price.... very big early Ferrari collector...

I do not have the S/N off hand.

 

Great pictures and an impressive list of cars. Do you know who your father bought the 250TR and 250GT SWB from and who they were sold to? Which years? Was he based out of Massachusetts or Connecticut or somewhere else in New England? I'm just curious because I grew up in Wellesley, MA and also lived in downtown Boston for a couple years. Great post!
