1973 Ferrari Dino 246GT
Description
We have just added to our extensive exotic car inventory this stunning 1973 Ferrari Dino 246 GT.
Purchased new from Griswold & Co. in Berkeley CA on September 10, 1973 this Dino came optioned with air conditioning, leather interior, power windows and metallic paint. The grand total came to $16,500. Steven Giacobbi was the first owner of this Dino, and he would go on to own the car until 1986 when it changed hands to Timothy Murphy of Norwalk, CT.
During his ownership Murphy would drive the car from California to New York, and write a column about his experience and the car's flawless performance in the Ferrari Club's magazine, Prancing Horse. In late 1989 he sold the car to a NY dealer.
In August of 1994 the Dino finds it next long term owner in Lars Malmberg. He kept the car in Hermosa Beach, CA and maintained it faithfully for the next two decades. During his ownership the very original car received new carpets, a rebuild of its original transmission, carburetor overhaul, and a multitude of small maintenance tasks. In 2012 Malmberg was required to move to Sweden and labored over the decision to take his beloved Dino with him. In the end the worry over shipping damage, and import issues won out and he decided to allow the car to find a new home.
In 2018 Dino 05020 was sent to the world renowned restoration center Canepa Design in Scotts Valley, CA where it was taken to whole new level. Steam cleaned and detailed from the bottom up, this car was finished to an absolutely immaculate level. The Rosso Rubino Metallizzato paint was color sanded and buffed to a mirror finish. All mechanical systems where thoroughly addressed and sorted. No part of the car was overlooked. In late 2018 the car was acquired by a very good customer/collector of Marshall Goldman Motor Sales.
Recently acquired back from our customer this Dino is simply remarkable. It also just had a major service performed by GTO Engineering in Los Angeles, CA.
