This was one of the competitors in the BRDC 60s GT Race at the Christie’s International Historic Festival meeting at Silverstone in July 1992.

It’s the Ferrari 250 GTO of Sir Anthony Bamford, now Lord Bamford, and was driven in the race by Frank Sytner. It is a 1963 car, chassis #4399GT, that was rebodied at the end of 1963 with a 1964 series II body. This car was first owned by Colonel Ronnie Hoare of Maranello Concessionaires and raced by several drivers including Mike Parkes, Graham Hill and Innes Ireland, Graham Hill winning the 1963 Tourist Trophy race at Goodwood and Mike Parkes the 1964 Spa 500 km race. Innes Ireland and Tony Maggs finished in sixth place in the 1964 Le Mans 24 Hour race. It was bought by Anthony Bamford in 1969.
