Ferrari Dino 246 246 GT Long term ownership, restored and revised 1972

Allmän beskrivning : It is the 23rd March 1976, the day that the previous owner picked up his 4 year old Dino 246 GT from Kroymans, the Dutch Ferrari importer. The Dino 246 GT succeeded the Dino 206 GT after Ferrari responded to the call for more power by clients. The engine size went from the 2.0 litre in the 206 GT to 2.4 litre in the 246 GT with an increase in output from 180 Hp to 195 Hp. There were also changes to its body size being slightly longer and higher than its predecessor. The changes immediately resulted in better sales figures. Over a two year period Ferrai only sold 152 206 GT’s in contrast to the 3,671 246 GT’s between 1969 and 1974. In 1972 our Dino 246 GT first hit the open road in Belgium. This one is a series 2 Dino 246 GT, recognisable by its 14” Crommodora wheels and parallel windscreen wipers. This car has had one owner over the last 44 years. As you can readily imagine, the car has always been very well look after. In the past the Dino was professionally restored. You can still appreciate the effort spent. The fine bodywork has nice and correctly aligned body panels. The red paintwork has been professionally re-sprayed and remains in good condition with only minor signs of use. The upholstery was also renewed. The “Daytona” style seats upholstered in red and black leather are in good shape. The black carpets and black leather dashboard cladding are also in fine condition. The switches and instruments are in good working order. Mechanically the Dino is very sound. That the engine and gearbox were overhauled shows to its advantage. The 65 degrees 2.4 litre V6 engine runs and sounds fantastic. The engine is coupled to a 5-speed manual gearbox which shifts smoothly and precisely over all 5 synchro-meshed gears. Driving the Dino 246 GT has a rather modern feel to it. Apart from the fact that the Dino 246 GT is a great design, it also handles extremely well. This feat is achieved by the combination of low weight, strong mid-engine and superb suspension. The car comes with documentation and photo’s of the restoration. A superb Dino 246 GT, bound to give many more years of ultimate classic pleasure as only an Italian stallion can provide.

om Ferrari
Den första Ferrari väg bil var de 125 S introducerades 1947 och drivs av en 1,5 L V12 motor, eller hur?
Tja det är inte riktigt så enkelt, Ferrari faktiskt producerar e Tipo 815, 1940 Tipo 815 ritades av ex-Alfa Romeo ingenjörer Alberto Massimino och Vittorio Bellentani och Enrico Nardi enligt Enzo sällskap men juridiska frågor med det tidigare intresse Alfa Romeo hindrade Ferrari från att lansera Ferrari marque vid den punkten.

Enzo fick fram en rad fina väg bilar på 50-talet och 60-talet, men de var bara för att finansiera sin passion racing, väder GT / Sportbil eller Grand Prix. 50-talet såg födelsen av Ferraris mest minnesvärda bilar, 250 GTB (tour de France) 250 Testa Rossa, 250 GT SWB bara för att nämna några.

Under ytspänningen växte dock. I November 1961 erfaren försäljningschef Girolamo Gardini gjorde ett ultimatum till Enzo: om spänningar fortsatte skulle han lämna företaget. Som ett resultat var Gardini avsattes, liksom Scuderia Ferrari manager Romolo Tavoni, överingenjör Carlo Chiti, experimentell sportbil utveckling chief Giotto Bizzarrini, och ett antal andra, som stod vid dem.
Utan Chiti och Bizzarrini utvecklingen av vad som skulle bli den mest kvintessensen Ferrari och idag världens dyraste bil, 250 GTO, var vid en svängpunkt. 250 GTO projekt räddades av en ung ingenjör Mauro Forghieri och lång tid racing bodyman Sergio Scaglietti som klev in och tog över programmet med kända resultat.

Förutom 250 GTO, Ferrari launced sådana mästerverk som 250 LM, 250P, 275 GTB, 365 GTB / 4 "Daytona" under 60-talet
I slutet av 60-talet Ferraris prototyper framgång fick ett abrupt stopp av en ny konkurrent, GT40. Ford vände sig till Lola för att producera en Ferrari slog långdistans racer efter Enzo hade klippt affären av med Henry Ford II gör det senare absolut koka av vrede. Samarbetet mellan Ford och Lola skapade den mäktiga Ford GT40 som gav Ferrari några tunga hits i Le Mans 24 framöver.
I slutet av 60-talet FIAT köpte 50% av bolaget, med start en utveckling som har lett till en ny massproducerade era av Ferraris.
