Friday's Ferrari

This is another car which I photographed at the 1962 London Motor Show at the Earls Court exhibition centre. It's a Ferrari 250 GTO and I've found this information about that particular car on a website called finemodelcars.com:

Ferrari 250 GTO Chassis No. 3869GT

3869GT left the factory on October 8th 1962, painted red with an Oxford blue nose, it was delivered to Col. Ronnie Hoare/Maranello Concessionaires, UK. Chassis number 3869 was the London Motor Show Car. In 1963 Ron Fry became the new owner, he won many hillclimbs and sprint races. In December 1964 Karl Richardson bought the GTO and raced it in 1965 at Mont Ventoux hillclimb (3rd IC), Ollon-Villars hillclimb (4th IC) and at the Brighton & Hove MC Brighton Speed Trials (3rd IC).




Here's the barchetta.cc history of 3869GT.
