1963 Ferrari 250 GTE

Ferrari 250GTE 1963

The Ferrari 250GTE is fast shedding its reputation as an affordable 3-litre 12-cylinder Ferrari.
Like all Ferraris from the 50's to the 70's, they are enjoying tremendous appreciation, and this car represents an opportunity to acquire an honest example that needs Restoration.
Over the years, GTEs have become increasingly rare as many have been cannibalized for parts for replicas and for other models.!
Today, s/n 3145 is best described as very straight and honest, example. A few pieces still need to be found to have it 100% complete. The interior also shows most of his components. Speaking cosmetically, detail aspects of the car such as; gauges, door jams, are present and all original.
While they provide opportunity for value added restorative work by the new owner. The engine bay is quite nicely preserved, with correct finished applied where appropriate, and many of the often missing or not original pieces are still in place on this example. The underside shows light signs of rust in the common areas, but is functionally solid. The car sits on nice Borrani wire wheels, correct for a GTE.
Mechanically, the car is missing original engine and transmission. The suspension and steering box are operating properly. The brakes are complete. The odometer currently shows 92,968 kms, which is believed to be correct from new.
Included with the car is the matching spare wire wheel,
Less than a thousand 250 GTEs were built between 1960 and 1963. As a limited production car with several unique features, this example should appeal those looking for an inexpensive early Ferrari to capitalize on the current upswing in the market for these cars while having a fun toy to tinker with.
