Ferrari 365 GT4 GTC/4 1972
General description :
The 365 GTC/4 shares the chassis, wheelbase, suspension and engine with the 365 Daytona, however in a Pininfarina designed 2+2 body. To accommodate the more practical nature of the car, the 4.4 L V12 engine was slightly detuned from the Daytona to 340bhp, there was a slightly softer suspension set-up and an inclusion of power-steering. These changes made the 365 GTC/4 a more comfortable grand tourer than its two-seat sibling. Just 505 365 GTC/4s were produced between 1971 and 1972.The car we're offering was supplied by Modern Classic Motors in Reno, Nevada and was specified from new with air conditioning, power windows, and a speedometer in mph. The car was imported to the UK in 2014 by Joe Macari who then carried out a full nut and bolt restoration on the car and exhibited it at the 2016 London Classic Car show. Shortly after the show, the car was purchased by Jamiroquai frontman and avid car collector, Jay Kay, where it became a part of his amazing private collection.During its restoration, the car was refinished in a rich Dark Metallic Grey over a luscious blue leather interior. The car maintains a photo album that fully documents its restoration process and also has been awarded red book Classiche Certification from the Ferrari Factory, confirming its matching numbers engine.For many the GTC/4 is a much nicer car to own and drive than the more famous Daytona; and when this is combined by the limited production run and figures, they certainly present a fantastic argument as being the finest 70s Ferrari to own and also invest.

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.
