Friday's Ferrari

This car was in the paddock at the Silverstone Classic meeting in July 2010, but it didn't take part in any of the races at the meeting.

It appears to be a 1957 Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa, but started off life as a 1961 Ferrari 250 GTE 2+2, chassis #2349 with the same Gioacchino Colombo designed 2,953cc V12 engine. It spent its early years in Sweden where it was badly damaged by a fire and was rebuilt in its current form by Neil Twyman. I've seen more recent photographs of the car with a hardtop.

I photographed this car in one of the pit garages at the Silverstone Classic meeting in July 2010.

It's a very convincing looking 1957 Ferrari 250 TR Scaglietti Spyder, but it started off life as a 1961 Ferrari 250 GTE, chassis number 2349GT. The car was severely damaged in a garage fire in Sweden in 1972 and rebuilt in its current form by Neil Twyman.

On 7 November 2014 I showed a photograph that I had taken of this car at Silverstone in July 2000.
