1968 Ferrari 365
Russo and Steele Auction
Auction: 2003 Monterey, CA
Consignment # 5103
Final Bid: $ 67,500.00
This is a unique example of Ferrari history from Switzerland. Though originally a French spec car, this 365 was bought by a Swiss and spent all of its life in the high and dry air around Montreux. In the late eighties it was shipped to Italy, where it purportedly underwent a full refurbishment by Ferrari. The car has only the original 63.448 km and save for the typical syncro wear exhibited prior to warm up, it's drivability and appearances are excellent.
This one the first models to be equipped with fully independent suspension, concentric Koni telescopic shocks and coiling springs all around, coupled with a Koni and Ferrari-developed self-leveling rear suspension. Also, due to the new independent rear suspension, less noise is heard inside the car.
This model of Ferrari also sported a new look. This look is more reminiscent of the Super fast than of the previous 2 2’s. The 365 had, at that time, the most effort put into convenience features than any other Ferrari’s, and it shows. The 365 GT was the most sophisticated Ferrari produced up to its date of manufacture. This is more comfortable than any other produced until the 1980’s, without losing the Ferrari feel.
