The much sought-after Ferrari 246 Dino GT was named after Enzo
Ferrari's son Alfredino, who died in 1956, aged just 24. Enzo
Ferrari credits his son with the inspiration for a series of
successful small and medium capacity V6 racing engines built by
Ferrari from 1956 and in turn the name was given to a new line of
mid-engine production Ferrari V6 coupés which first went on sale in
1969. The Dino 246GT has proved to be one of the most satisfying
and successful automobiles built by Ferrari and paved the way for
the emerging generation of mid-engine Ferraris. It is widely
regarded as one of the best-handling and most gratifying motorcars
of the early 1970s; it is certainly one of the most attractive,
delicately balanced designs ever produced by the masters at
Pininfarina.
Started by one of the UK's leading Ferrari specialists, this is an interesting project based on a 1975 Ferrari 308GT4 chassis, incorporating a Ferrari 360 engine and a manual gearbox producing over 400mph from a front end damaged 360 which had only covered 22,000 miles from new and had just received a major service by a Ferrari main dealer. The steering, suspension and new brakes are from a Ferrari 328; the only non-Ferrari part is the new 206/246 fibreglass body which is made to the correct dimensions of the original car in France. The car is supplied with a correct windscreen, a set of 308 Dino instruments, Ferrari seats and other parts required to complete the car as well as the V5C registration document and a SORN certificate. This is an opportunity to build a classic Ferrari for a fraction of the price which could be left or righthand drive and the power and performance to beat any of its contemporaries either on the road or track. This is an opportunity to purchase the iconic Ferrari Dino at a fraction of the cost of an original car with the benefit of the later mechanics.
