One of 52
This 2+2 coupe is an insight into another era when big GT coupes were available from a wide spectrum of makers across the globe, often at premium prices.
In the case of this Ferrari with its Pininfarina-styled body, a total of just 801 are said to have been built, with just 52 starting life as right-hand-drive.
Those tiny production numbers were typical of the period and indicative of the relatively early days of the Ferrari business. In a story on one of this car’s predecessors, a 1964 330 GT, we noted: “It was made by hand in 1964 at Maranello. It is known to be number 309 of the 330 GT Series I. It is also known to be number 29 of only 43 made in right-hand drive.”
First sold into the UK, the 365 runs a 4.4lt Colombo V12 with five-speed manual, self-levelling suspension and disc brakes all round.
The high-end spec continued with creature comforts such as air-conditioning, power steering and electric windows.
The Healey Factory in Melbourne has this one at $450,000.
