The ultimate incarnation of the front-engined V12 Ferrari, the Spider version is even more coveted.
Ultimate Ferrari's front-engined V12 models at the time, the Spider is even more desirable.
- When it was launched at the 1968 Paris Motor Show, the 365 GTB/4 "Daytona" was the ultimate incarnation of Ferrari's legendary front-engined V12 range. It was the most powerful 2-seater GT and the fastest production car in the world, topping 270 km/h. It is rightly considered, along with the Lamborghini Miura, to be the world's first supercar.
- #13865 was delivered new to the Dino Ravasio & Figli dealership in Verona, Italy, on 17 October 1971. Leaving the factory in a rare configuration with a Bianco Polo colour and Connoly Pelle Nera leather interior, it was one of the very last examples to feature a Plexiglas strip covering the four fixed headlights. It remained in Italy for almost 20 years before joining William Effinger's collection in Georgia in 1987, dedicated exclusively to the brand.
- It was during this period, between 1989 and 1990 to be precise, that Richard Straman was commissioned to transform it from coupé to spider. The car was fitted with retractable headlights, a new red paint job with black upholstery and soft top, and Borrani spoked wheels to replace the original Cromodora. It will continue to be serviced by Ferrari's FAF Motorcars dealership in Atlanta.
- Returning to Europe in January 2008, #13865 retained its original engine and matching numbers. In the hands of a Belgian collector living in England in 2016, several maintenance invoices can be found in his file at Foskers, the marque's specialist in Kent. Among the documents that will be given to the buyer are a copy of his old American papers, an old British V5C registration title, his Massini report and a letter of authentication issued by Ferrari Classiche.
- Superb in its Grigio Ferro colour with a natural leather interior to great effect, our example has undergone a number of recent expenses, including an engine tune-up, a check of all the running gear and a complete replacement of the exhaust system. The soft top is easy to handle and a real pleasure to drive. Only 123 Spiders were built under factory control, out of a total production of no more than 1,300 cars in all body styles. #13865 represents a wonderful opportunity to acquire a magnificent, well-maintained Daytona Spider for much less than the cost of an original spider, or even a Berlinetta version.
