I took this photograph at the Christie's International Historic Festival meeting at Silverstone in July 1992.
It's a Ferrari 250 GT, and although it's not got any racing numbers it may be the 1961 SWB Berlinetta Competizione car, #2163GT, of Stefano Durelli who competed in the BRDC '60s GT Race. It has the Gioacchino Colombo
designed 2,953cc V12 engine which powered most of the Ferrari 250 series of
cars and the 250 GT was introduced by Ferrari at the Paris Motor Show in
1959.
Correction: I've been told that this car isn't an alloy bodied Competizione model but is a steel bodied 1961 Ferrari 250 GT SWB Berlinetta, chassis #2551GT, then owned by Eric Heerema.
