1960 Ferrari 250 GT SWB Berlinetta Coupe

1960 Ferrari 250 GT SWB Navigation
The blue Ferrari 250 GT SWB Berlinetta is seen here on the grounds of the Quail Lodge in California. A few months later it was brought to the other side of the United States for the Cavallino Classic in West Palm Beach. It carries chassis number 2265 GT and was the 55th one created, finished in December of 1960. It is constructed of steel and is a left-hand drive automobile. It has had only four owners since new, with the latest owner taking possession in 1983.

Widely recognized as one of the greatest Ferraris of all time, the 250 GT Short Wheelbase was a dual-purpose model. Aimed at both racing and touring, it had a chassis that was shorter by 8-inches than the 250 GT Berlinetta. In production from late 1959 until early 1963, 165 SWB chassis were finished, ninety with steel Lusso road trim and seventy-five with the lightweight aluminum alloy race bodywork. This car, with chassis number 2265GT, won its class in the 1985 Vintage support race prior to the Mexican Grand Prix in Mexico City.
