1961 Ferrari 250 GT Modena California Spyder "Ferris Buellers Day Off"

A beautiful 1961 Ferrari 250 Modena California Spyder which was builtby Modena Design & Development inEl Cajon,CA, the company that created the iconic car for the 1986 movie "Ferris Bueller's Day Off".

Modena Design & Development was in business from 1986 through 1988 and this GT 0001 was the first production car produced of the approximate 52 cars that were produced and has been authenticated by Mr. Neil Glassmoyer, President of Modena Design & Development. This makes the car recognizable, rare, and an opportunity to acquire a unique and rather unusual piece of Ferrari-related history & American popular culture. In March 2018 the Modena California Spyder was added to the National Historic Vehicle Register in recognition of their significance in American automotive history. (HVA)
