1967 Ferrari 275 GTB/4 Coupe

This 1967 Ferrari 275 GTB/4 was the 110th example by assembly sequence during the model's limited 330-car production run. It left the factory wearing a Giallo Fly exterior (Fly Yellow) over Nero (Black) upholstery. It was completed by Ferrari during April 1967 and equipped with full leather seats, metric instruments, and power window lifts. Its 3,285cc DOHC V-12 engine has six Weber 40 DCN17 twin-choke carburetors and produces 300 horsepower at 8,000 RPM. There is a five-speed manual transaxle, an independent suspension, and four-wheel hydraulic disc brakes. The 275 GTB/4's predecessor, the 275 GTB, was the first of Ferrari's road cars to be equipped with all-independent suspension and a five-speed rear transaxle. The Pininfarina-designed body was built by Scaglietti.

In May 1967, this 275 GTB/4 was delivered new to its first owner, Helge Pehrsson of Stockholm, Sweden. It was sold in 1969 to Peter Lindkvist of Lidingö, Sweden, then to fellow Swede Bo Gilius Frick, who moved to Los Angeles with the car in July 1970. By 1985, chassis 09909 was restored and advertised for sale in Ferrari Market Letter (Vol. 14, No. 8) from a New York dealer and advertised as having '20,000 original miles.' By 1989, it was owned by Frank Gallogly of New Jersey, who sold it around 1991 to Gregory Galdi. While in his ownership, the Ferrari was shown at several FCA meets in the Northeast and completed exhibition laps at Pocono Raceway. In May 1991, it was displayed at the 27th Annual FCA National Meeting and Concours in Washington, D.C., and a May 1994 exhibition at the Reading, Pennsylvania, Ferrari Concours d'Elegance.

This 275 GTB/4 received an engine rebuild in March 1993, rebuilding of the brakes and suspension in 1996, and extensive servicing during May 1999. In April 2004, the Ferrari was advertised for sale by Michael Sheehan, who offered it on behalf of Mr. Galdi, with 25,671 miles. In June 2004, the Ferrari was advertised for sale by Eugenio Amoruso of Italy, with the vehicle still located in the US and titled in New York. In March 2005, Mr. Amoruso sold 09909 to New York City resident John J. Hannan, who displayed it at the inaugural New York City Concours d'Elegance held during October 2005 at the Wollman Rink in Central Park. Eddie Karam acquired 09909 in early 2009, selling it that year to Argentinian Juan Ball, who kept the Ferrari under professional care in the UK and drove it in the April 2010 edition of the Tour Auto Optic 2000.

While in Mr. Ball's ownership, this Ferrari was granted its FIVA Identity Card (no. 038016, dated April 13, 2010) under the auspices of the Federation of British Historic Vehicle Clubs. UK resident John Bentley became the car's next caretaker in mid-2011. In April 2012, the 275 GTB/4 received certification by Ferrari Classiche, including the issuance of the corresponding Red Book.

Dennis Pobiak of Scottsdale, Arizona, acquired the car in near the close of 2012 and exhibited it at the 2019 FCA National Field and Driving Concours. The car remained with Mr. Pobiak until his passing in 2022, at which time it was acquired by its current owner.

This Ferrari currently has 29,225 miles on its odometer.
