LMC is very proud to offer for sale this 1970 Ferrari 365 GT 2+2
Introduced in 1967 at the Paris Auto Salon, the 365 GT 2+2 represented advances for Ferrari and their GT 2+2 models. A true gentleman's sports car it came with refinements which made it quieter, smoother and more comfortable over the previous model, the 330 GT 2+2. Its low-slung fastback design resembles the 365 California and a more sweeping roofline than the preceding 330 GT 2+2. It is an attractive car that carried on the subtle elegance which characterized Ferrari’s luxury offerings. The European market cars featured clear headlight fairings, but these were removed for U.S. deliveries due to the previously mentioned federal regulations. A most uncommon feature on the 365 GT 2+2 was the use of a very high strength translucent plastic to cover the turn indicator lights that are integrated into the front bumpers.
The Ferrari performance was combined with a luxurious interior, creating a most impressive grand tourer. Plush leather, luxurious veneered trim panels, air conditioning, a stereo, Veglia instrumentation, individualized rear seating and standard power windows completed the interior appointments. The shimmering black finish is beautifully accented by the legendary Borrani wire wheels with knock-offs, eggcrate-style grille, front hinged tilt-out rear windows; four-wheel disc brakes will handle the stopping power.
According to ownership information found in Ferrari Market Letter, this beautiful Ferrari has been owned by top collectors who have cared for and maintained this 365 GT. It has benefitted from an extensive reconditioning of entire engine and running gear during its lifetime. One of the previous owners had enlisted the help of top-notch Ferrari mechanic Patrick Ottis to overhaul the engine which took approximately six years. The next owner had Greg Jones in Florida - also recognized as another top Ferrari mechanic and a top judge, rebuild the transmission and corrected a problem with the clutch cable. Mr. Jones also put in correct door and trunk rubber seals and repaired the gauges so all of them work, including the clock. He also put in a new exhaust system with its correct hangers, rebuilt brake booster and clutch, added the Borrani wheels, new correct carpets (including trunk), period correct radio and the desirable headlight covers. The previous owner then showed it at Concorso Italiano and other venues plus enjoying select road rallies along the way. Great attention, as well as much money has been spent to achieve the level of drivability this car has. It has been well sorted and certainly ready for any Ferrari club event or just for a relaxing drive through winding rural roads.
This gorgeous Ferrari tourer comes with the Classiche certification from Ferrari which is highly coveted. It also comes with ownership history and service records from each owner. To complete the sale comes an original Ferrari toolkit within its leather roll and jack and Ferrari owner’s manual. The market has climbed rapidly on all 1960s Ferraris and this model represents the best value for the Colombo V-12 experience. It offers the same performance characteristics and experience of Prancing Horse ownership with ability to seat four!

About Ferrari
The first Ferrari road car was the 125 S introduced in 1947 and powered by a 1.5 L V12 engine, right? Well it's not quite that simple, Ferrari did in fact produce e Tipo 815, in 1940. Tipo 815 was designed by ex-Alfa Romeo engineers Alberto Massimino and Vittorio Bellentani and by Enrico Nardi under Enzo's company but legal issues with the former associate Alfa Romeo prevented Ferrari from launching the Ferrari marque at that point.
Enzo did produce a series of fine road cars in the 50's and 60's but they were merely to finance his true passion racing, wheather GT/Sports car or Grand Prix. The 50's saw the birth of Ferrari's most memorable cars, 250 GTB (tour de France) 250 Testa Rossa, 250 GT swb just to name a few.
Under the surface tension was growing though. In November 1961 long-time sales manager Girolamo Gardini made an ultimatum to Enzo: if tensions continued, he would leave the company. As a result, Gardini was ousted, as well as Scuderia Ferrari manager Romolo Tavoni, chief engineer Carlo Chiti, experimental sports car development chief Giotto Bizzarrini, and a number of others who stood by them.
Without Chiti and Bizzarrini the development of what was to become the most quintessential Ferrari and today the world's most expensive car, 250 GTO, was at a pivoting point. 250 GTO project was saved by a young engineer Mauro Forghieri and long-time racing bodyman Sergio Scaglietti who stepped in and took over the program with known results.
In addition to 250 GTO, Ferrari launced such master pieces as 250 LM, 250P, 275 GTB, 365 GTB/4 "Daytona" during the the 60's
By the late 60's Ferrari's prototypes' success came to a sudden halt by a new competitor, GT40. Ford turned to Lola to produce a Ferrari beating long distance racer after Enzo had cut the deal off with Henry Ford II making the latter absolutely boil with fury. The collaboration between Ford and Lola created the mighty Ford GT40 that gave Ferrari some heavy hits in Le Mans 24 to come.
By the end of the 60's FIAT purchased 50% of the company, starting a development that has led to a new mass-produced era of Ferraris.
