 |  |  | Coachwork: Pininfarina Chassis Num: 0442 M |
There were only four Ferrari 250 Monza cars ever created, with two bodied by Scaglietti and two by Pininfarina. The only example to retain its original bodywork is chassis number 0442.
The 250 Monza reinforced Ferrari's reputation for building a competitive car and for being very versatile. They were able to create this vehicle, similar to some of their prior cars, to meet the current needs of their customers. The 250 Monza's were powered by the Colombo three-liter V12 engine that produced around 240 horsepower. Keeping with Ferrari tradition, they had hydraulic drum brakes on all four corners and a four-speed manual gearbox.
This example shown is chassis number 0442 M finished in dark red with a brown interior. It is right-hand drive and sold new to Franco Cornacchia's Scuderia Guastalla. It was used in competition in Europe and at the Carrera Panamericana.
Since that time it has passed through several owners, used in various types of racing and historic events, and most recently been shown at the 2007 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance.
