1980 Ferrari Other Berlinetta

Ferrari Other Berlinetta (1980)
for sale

Price: US $50,000.00

Description:

FYI I lowered the reserve to a priced to sell level. Based on other BBi's on the market I believe my car may just be priced best out of the rest.
This is a 1981 not an 1980 (Ebay would not accept the vin # as this is a Euro car) Ferrari 512 BBi vin # ZFFJA09B000038713. It's likely one of the lowest mileage and the best early injected Boxers in the world. I would not be saying this if I did not spend a good amount of years owning and inspecting these beautiful, last of the hand built Ferraris. Scaglieti was hired by the Ferrari factory to hand build these great mid-engined super cars of the 70's and 80's. The panels were put onto wooden bucks and hammered to shape by very talented craftsman. No Ferrari has gotten built this way since the Boxer went out of production in 1984.
The car being offered here is truly a time warp car! It has just 1600 miles. It's the 5th injected Boxer build. This is an 1981 production year car. A classic color combination of Rosso Chiaro with black boxer trim. Beautiful tan interior with the Daytona style seats and black inserts. The car was a Borgata Casino featured show car. There is a one inch thick well organized folder on its history and origin. You will find an incredible wealth of information like the original bill of sale, letters and telegrams from the first owner and Ferrari SPA. Certificate of origin, copies of checks to Ferrari through Luigi Chinetti, payment certificates, importation and freight documents, receipts from Classic Coach, Importation Tag with Pallet number and destination report and so on. The DOT releases are part of that paper work. Classic Coach out of NJ did the DOT conversion. The car also comes with every thing it came from the factory, including an original hard to find sales brochure. The original quartz clock tag. These materials are in concourse condition. Please refer to the pictures of these materials. The car has had some minor paint work over the years, but still retains most of it's original paint. The car had an engine out service about 8 years ago so it's due for a major service. The car runs and drives absolutely incredible! Cold A/C. It retains it's original interior, dash leather and stereo equipment all in mint condition. This car has never been restored! It is truly a mint condition car, as it should be with having just 1600 miles. This is a museum quality Boxer. If you ever wanted a Boxer that has not been molested or brought back to life after years of driving, this may be the car to own. I looked at so many cars, some were excellent examples alright, but none came close to this car's quality. Remember a car is only original once. The mid-engined flat 12 cylinder engined Ferraris are one of my favorite Ferrari designs and is a memorable experience every time you drive one! The car must be seen in person, as pictures do not do it justice. The mid-engined Ferraris are red hot these days. I believe Boxers have a bright future ahead and should continue to climb in value. Feel free to email me with any questions or concerns. I suggest to perform a PPI on this car as it is being sold as-is where is with absolutely no warranty of any kind.
Thank you for looking at my auction.
