The Ferrari 250 GT berlinetta passo corto rightfully holds strong favor with today’s collectors, combining a design and competition pedigree that is nearly unequaled. The Short-Wheelbase, or SWB, as it is affectionately known, occupies a unique and important link in the Ferrari racing lineage as a short-wheelbase evolution of the uber-successful 250 GT ‘Tour de France’ berlinetta that dominated the late 1950s, and a direct precursor to that apogee of front-engine road-racing

The Ferrari 250 GT Tour de France Berlinetta has long been seen as one of the most sought-after GT racing cars of the 1950s, with just 78 examples produced. Chassis 0903 GT is the fourth of only 36 single-louver Tour de France Berlinettas built. Delivered new to Sweden, this Tour de France was initially owned by two Swedish race car drivers; first by noted driving ace Sture Nottorp and later Kjell Lundberg. After remaining in Sweden for decades, the TdF eventually made its wa

Our friends at Brandoli Egidio in Italy produced a video documenting the restoration of a very special 1965 Berlinetta Scaglietti - a rare short-nose Ferrari 275 GTB.

In the long run it made the car more unique and distinct, and they were bought up by collectors and movie stars. It was the open car to be seen in. In C

Benefiting from recent cosmetic measures that have bolstered a prior engine rebuild, this beautifully presented 250 GT is an outstanding example of the rare and celebrated “Short-Wheelbase.” Chassis 2163 GT is one of 42 alloy-bodied examples built in 1960. Undergoing much of its build process during October 1960, the 250 GT was clothed in aluminum alloy coachwork by Scaglietti and finished in rosso chiaro, while the interior was trimmed with nero leather (a color combination

Built in 1950, s/n 0060 M is a thoroughbred competition Ferrari, based on the highly successful 166 MM/195 S chassis with aerodynamic coachwork by Carrozzeria Touring of Milan. One of only six examples of the Berlinetta Le Mans, the factory campaigned this Ferrari in Italian races, as well as displayed it at the 1950 Paris Auto Salon on Luigi Chinetti’s stand. The car was then sold to famed American sportsman Briggs Cunningham, and raced at Sebring, Buenos Aires, Watkins Glen
