1966 Ferrari 275 GTS Spyder Convertible Coupe

  • Coachwork by Pininfarina
  • Chassis Number: 08335
  • Engine Number: 08335
This Ferrari 275 GTS is the 193rd of 200 examples built. The chassis was sent to Pininfarina for Spider coachwork in early October 1965 and the work was not completed until 1966, after returning to the factory where chassis was officially finished in early March.

The original dealer's invoice was dated in late April of 1966 and purchased new from German Ferrari agent Auto-Becker by Mortimer Rosenbaum of San Diego, California. Mr. Rosenbaum retained the car for two decades, keeping it in highly original condition modifying only the brakes for improved power.

A California based individual acquired it in 1986, and then sold it to Walnut Creek Ferrari in 1990, where it remained until being purchased in early 1992 by Dennis Farrey of San Carlos, California. Farrey sold the Ferrari later that year to Dr. Ervin 'Bud' Lyon of New Hampshire, at which point the odometer showed 30,670 miles.

In 1997, he treated the car to a comprehensive refurbishment. The work, performed by Paul Russell & Co. in Massachusetts, included restoring the brakes, suspension, and other chassis elements, while partially rebuilding the original V-12 engine. The interior was trimmed in black leather, while the coachwork was refinished in the factory shade of Azzuro Metallizat. The car was then enjoyed at two driving events held in conjunction with the 1999 Cavallino Classic, the track event at Moroso Motorsports Park and the Classic Tour di Palm Beach.

In the early 2000s, Lyon sold the car to dealer Stephen Serio, who in turn retailed the car to Chris Lynch of Wayland, Massachusetts, by 2004. In May of 2011, the car was sold to Don Gaiter.

Currently, the car has 34,763 miles on its odometer.
