Friday's Ferrari

This is another of the cars in the special Ferrari display at the Coys International Historic Festival meeting at Silverstone in July 1997.

The board in front of the car reads:

A website called trackthoughts.com has this to say about the Ferrari 330 P3/4:

Ferrari updated 330P3 Spyder s/n 0846 to P4 specifications. The chassis was modified to accept the Tipo 241 engine and the new Tipo 603 gearbox. The bodywork was also updated to accommodate the wider profile tires. This car was officially a 330 P3/4 or as Ing Forghieri described it, a Bastard Ferrari P3/4. The Ferrari factory would ultimately build three genuine 330P4 cars for the 1967 season. To provide additional support, Ferrari converted the older 330P3 series to customer cars and named them 412P. These cars had the 2-valve, 4-liter P3 engines converted to Weber carburetors. Initially the 412Ps used the ZF gearbox but were upgraded to Tipo 603 later in the season. The cars also had modified suspension and bodywork and were similar in appearance to the 330P4s.

Websites about the two races involved refer to the car as a Ferrari 412P and at that time, of course, the car would have been painted in the Belgian colour of yellow.

This car's serial number is 0854 and therefore isn't the car Mairesse and Beurlys drove in the 1967 Daytona race.
