1960 Ferrari 250 GT SWB Berlinetta Coupe

One of the most popular Ferrari models is the 250 GT Short Wheelbase Berlinetta (SWB). Essentially it is the last Ferrari built for both competition and street use. Ferrari produced 158 examples. While they appear similar there are a number of subtle differences.

Seventy of the SWB were produced with aluminum coachwork while the balance was made of steel. This particular example is the 51st of 158 produced. What sets this example apart is that it is the first of the fourth variant. This was a small group of ten cars built with the competition chassis. In addition, there are a number of unique features added for homologation
purposes. These included the velocity stacks cold air pan ribbed gearbox limited slip differential Monza competition fuel filter and for the first time the vent window.

To further distinguish this particular SWB it is the car seen in the photographs snapped by Sergio Montovani at the Modena Autodromo with Franco Gozzi the press secretary for Ferrari. Their purpose was to document the revisions to the Homologation Form for the Ferrari 250GT SWB.
