Sold for $250,000 at 2022 RM Sothebys : The Youngtimer Collection - Miami.
1979 Ferrari 512 BB (Berlinetta Boxer) was ordered by Donald L. Weber directly from Maranello in Rosso Chiaro (Light Red) with Pella Nero (Black Leather) interior and red carpets. It left Europe aboard the MS Nopal Sel and set sail for the United States in March of 1979. Since the 512 BB was never intended for the U.S., it had to be federalized upon importation, a task completed by Automotive Compliance Inc.Mr. Weber has owned this 512 BB since new and had it tastefully customized with subtle changes to the interior including a dyed headliner and the addition of a MOMO Prototipo steering wheel. The carburetors have velocity stacks and the engine is not currently equipped with air cleaners. The 4,942cc DOHC flat 12-cylinder engine produces 360 horsepower at 6,200 RPM and is backed by a five-speed manual transaxle. Four-wheel hydraulic disc brakes provide the stopping power.
