Carbureted Version highly desirable and collectible. Last of the Flat 12 Cylinder Carb Cars! Fully serviced and just needs some finish work to be a collectors centerpiece. This Ferrari 512BB had been in storage for 3 years prior to being taken out for a full engine Rebuild and freshen up earlier this year. Car is highly original aside from the usual small amounts of paintwork here and there and is a Driver quality car aside from a few more things that need to be addressed to make it a High Quality driver or a great candidate for restoration to take advantage of the current market on these Carbureted examples! The engine was just completely rebuilt by “North Coast Exotic’s Inc. ” in Cleveland. OH. This is the explanation of repairs from North Coast Exotic’s and the repair invoice is available as well. “Car Arrived with heavy oil smoke while running.

Upon us receiving the vehicle at our California warehouse we had an inspection performed by “Fast Cars Ltd” in Redondo Beach to see what else car needs to be made correct and fully functional. Needless to say they came up with a list. Fast Cars Inc. inspection results: (copy of report available) Exterior/Frame: - Bumpers have been modified for US entry and are full of chips and cracks. need to put back to stock looking - Multiple paint chips - Incorrect side markers on bumpers (remove when bumpers fixed) - Front and rear frames have been modified and bent to fit bumper modifications (need repair) - Front badge on nose does not fit correctly - Engine bay cross member is bent - Under tray panel is bent - Huge gaps on deck lid to bumper (need adjustment) - Front grill has been modified to fit bumper modifications - Wheel well rubbers are fry rotted and falling off - Missing door light bezels - Rear deck lid brackets have been modified – need to remove for assessment - Unable to fully open deck lid Interior & Electrical - Trunk is missing hardware and strap for spare tire - Front deck lid insulation is falling off - Missing battery hold down - Incorrect battery - Disconnected wires at headlights - Incorrect stereo and missing equalizer - Dash is faded in areas and does not fit around key switch - Aftermarket light on center console - Door panel material is bubbling - Seat belts have cut wires - Tachometer is not working correctly - No dash lights - Space between seat and steering wheel is too small.

The total estimate to repair and replace parts through Fast Cars Ltd is right around $35. 00. 00 and has been said it can be taken care of in about a 5-week process. All this being said these cars are obviously rising in value at a rapid rate right now and with the January Auction season upon us and a couple of high quality examples set to go across the blocks of different auctions these cars are set for another jump in price. We have seen examples sell in the high $400. 00 range for very nice cars and expect these cars to cross the $500. 00 dollar mark in the near future.
