• One of only 455 built
• Highly original example
• Known ownership history

• Marcel Massini report on file

"Coming out of corners the combined action of the ZF limited-slip differential and the ample contact area of the tyres allows you to accelerate much earlier and with more gusto, and this without affecting the chosen line through the bend. Because of this, the 330 GT is blessed with exceptional speed on twisty roads and on coming out of corners it leaps forward like a rocket, leaving behind two thick black tyre marks." – Sporting Motorist, 1964.

In total Ferrari built 1,080 330 GTs, of which 455 were to 'Series 2' specification like that offered here. Delivered new to Switzerland finished in Argento with Rosso Connolly leather interior, this desirable single headlight 'Series 2' has clearly been well maintained throughout the years, boasting a lovely interior and equipped with beautiful original Campagnolo wheels, not the optional Borranis. The Ferrari was delivered new to Italauto SA in Lausanne, Switzerland and first owned by Mr Pierre Busy. '8505' was next owned, from 1974, by a Basel-based architect, followed by Fritz S Kern of Arlesheim, Switzerland (from circa 1980). In 1991 the car was sold to Ernst Scheidegger in Brunnen, Switzerland, and when offered for sale in 1993 was said to have been unused for the last 12 years and to be in highly original condition. In 1994, the Ferrari was sold to Mr Stüssi, another architect in Switzerland. The next owner purchased the Ferrari in 2003 and brought it to Belgium where it resided until October 2022 when it was sold to our vendor at Bonhams' Zoute sale in October of that year (Lot 145). At that time the odometer reading was a believed genuine 46,000 kilometres.

The engine in situ at time of purchase was number '9059', which was believed to have been in the car for over 20 years, installed while it was still in Switzerland. Since then the engine has been completely rebuilt by Foskers around its original matching numbers cylinder block, '8505', and reinstalled. In addition, the gearbox, suspension (overhauled), brakes, interior (new carpets), gauges, and carburettors (rebuilt) also received attention. More recently, in April 2025, Bell Sport & Classic refurbished bearings; the fuel system and pumps; the air conditioning system; and the heater. Bills on file for the aforementioned works total circa £70,000.

Representing a wonderful opportunity to acquire a highly original example of this landmark Ferrari Gran Turismo, the car is offered with UK V5C registration document; an owner's manual; sales brochure; copy of old Swiss title; Massini Report; ownership notes; and invoices for work carried out in 2017 by recognised specialists in Belgium for a total of €17,000.
