1981 Ferrari 512BB Navigation
This Ferrari 512 BB arrived via transporter on May 18th of 1981 at the home of its new owner, who had paid $90,000 for the car. At the time, the car had accumulated only 400 kilometers. Another 314 kilometers were added during EPA testing. After barely another kilometer on the Pirelli tires, the car was put into his garage, with the factory plastic still on the seats and door sills. It would remain in the garage for 33 years.By Daniel Vaughan | Oct 2014
