In 1967, Ferrari unveiled a luxury car and the successor to the 330 GT 2+2, the Ferrari 365 GT 2+2. The car was produced until 1971, and 800 units left the production line. One of them, a 1970 Ferrari 365 GT 2+2, is up for auction.
This 4,974 mm long and 1,786 mm wide car is finished in metallic blue and recently underwent a mechanical refurbishment. It is equipped with split front bumpers with integrated turn signals, rear bumper over-riders, a door-mounted driver-side mirror, and quad exhaust outlets.
Inside, the seats are covered in tan leather that also covers the door panels. Black leather covers the dashboard, central console and sills. In front of the driver is a wood-spoke steering wheel. Additional equipment includes front and rear shoulder belts, a Pininfarina radio blanking plate, power windows, and air conditioning. The clock reads 46,638 miles.
Under the hood is an overhauled 4.4L V12 engine with 315 hp (235 kW) and 268 lb-ft (363 Nm) of torque. Power is transmitted to the rear wheels via a 5-speed manual transmission (restored). It reaches 60 mph in 7.1 seconds with a top speed of 152 mph (245 km/h). It is mounted on Borrani wire wheels wrapped in 215/70VR15 Michelin XWX tires.
During the overhaul, the replacement of the cylinder liners, pistons, connecting rods, bearings, crankshaft oil-passage plugs, timing chain, camshafts, and valve guides was performed as well as the installation of hardened valve seats. Also, honing of the cylinders, relining of the cylinder head, welding repairs of one of the combustion chambers and overflow valves were done, and the triple Weber carburetors, manifolds, alternator, starter and water pump were rebuilt.
The car comes with partial invoices from the refurbishment, a tool kit, a jack, and a clean California title.
The auction ends on March 3rd and the current highest bid is $143,000 USD.
