This as many other Ferrari's of their day had an engine transplant...!!!
For many decades now it has been powered by a GM Engine and Transmission(Which btw...Still-Runs)...!!!
Neither the Engine Compartment or Wheel Wells were altered in any way when the Engine was installed...!!!
I have made no attempt to locate the cars first engine or transmission!
Once again as with so many of these Ferrari's of the 1950's and 60's this car is powered by a Bow-Tie power plant...!
(See: Robert Cook - Book Photos) -
Virtually HALF if not more of the now Cherished-Ferraris of the 50's and 1960's had their engine removed and often discarded at one time or another...!!!
This is the First-Ferrari I have ever owned!
Now she will be someone else's Treasured Keepsake!!!
Note: Another 1963 FERRARI 250 GTE S3 Sold Here on eBay(Item # 321829091377) in August of this Year(2015) for $210, 000.00(With NO-ENGINE at all)Engine Compartment Was EMPTY...!!!

300, 000.00

Project Ferrari 250GTE's are expected to increase past 1/2 a Million Dollars($500, 000.00+)during the next five(5) years at the current demand for Classic Ferrari Automobiles!
If returned to Restored Concours Condition - High Market Value will ultimately reach one(1) Million Dollars($1, 000, 000.00+)
The 250GTE that sold on eBay back in August(2015) realized 20% Over the then Low-Market-Value of ($175k) at that time ultimately bringing ($210k) respectively!
Now that current Low-Market-Value has moved up to ($300k) -
One could expect this 250GTE(In a much more RARE & DESIRABLE
