1966 FERRARI 275 GTB/C Rosso Chiaro with Blue
1966 FERRARI 275 GTB/C Rosso Chiaro with Blue SOLD Mileage N/A miles Engine Capacity 3285cc Body Style Coupe Fuel Petrol Transmission Manual Chassis No. 09041 A 9000 series competition 275 is the only variant to carry the official GTB/C model designation from the factory. Only 12 of these special cars were ever produced, the bodies were constructed from 20 gauge aluminium, which is approximately half the thickness of a normal alloy-bodied car. The engine was provided with dry sump lubrication, although a believed error in the submission of the homologation forms for the new car omitted to mention the six carburettor option, thus they had to run with only a triple carburettor assembly. However, the carburettors were specific to this series of cars, being a trio of twin choke Weber 40 DF13 models without cold start choke assemblies, featuring elegantly formed rearward curved intake trumpets. The compression ratio was raised slightly from the standard 9.2:1 to 9.3:1 using special pistons, connecting rods and crankshaft, whilst Nimonic steel inlet and exhaust valves were fitted, the latter being sodium filled to aid heat dissipation. A larger bore exhaust system, with two separate pairs of free flow manifolds per bank, aided hasty exhaust gas passage.

August 2016 Volume 3 Issue 8 Editorial Comments: With summer coming to an end be sure to check out the loaded fall season we have planned for the balance of 2016. There are more things to do and events than ever. Alfa Romeo Selection of the Month for August 2016. Car Name: 1939 Alfa Romeo 8C 2900B Lungo Touring Spider – not your average spider! Alfa Article: The Montreal Finally gets Respect Note: Curtisey Road & Track The Alfa Romeo Montreal Is Cooler Than Most Ferraris The Montreal is probably the greatest oddball of the seventies. A friend of mine has a beautiful black Alfa Romeo Montreal. He calls her Lukrécia, and the car works as flawlessly as such a machine can—because it lives at Alfarium, a shop where they can deal with its dry-sump 2.6 liter V8's crazy SPICA fuel injection and all the wiring that wasn't quite finished at the factory. That's why I trust them with my Autobianchi, a slightly less complex beast. Lukrécia even made it to the pages of Petrolicious before, but now, it was time for photographer/illustrator TJ Grewal's beautiful blue Montreal to become their latest star. TJ ended up buying the first Montreal he ever saw—importing it from Italy—and as somebody who spends a lot of time in his studio appreciating the details of such cars, he couldn't be happier about getting this Bertone classic. Alfa Romeo built less than 4000 Montreals in the middle of the oil crisis, naming the production version of the concept car after the Canadian Expo it was made for. -

The Ferrari 360 Modena
The Ferrari 360 Modena By Mark Russo for Angel’s Share THE PRANCING STALLION-FERRARI'S 360 MONDENA "If you have the means, I highly recommend picking one up." - Matthew Broderick in "Ferris Bueler's Day Off" Sure it has four wheels and a windshield. But should the Ferrari 360 Modena really be called a "car?" Cars are about transportation, getting to grandpa's house, hauling around groceries and the kids--they're a necessity like food or HBO. But the Ferrari 360 Modena F1 has little to do with transportation, and precious little to do with necessity. It's a 395-horsepower, $155,000 rocket-powered toy that goes v e r y fast. It's meant purely for pleasure, looks and speed. Period. Oh sure, it'll get you to granny's, quickly. It's just not the reason why you own such a machine. You own a Ferrari 360 Modena F1 because you want to. Because you can. Because everyone wants one and you have one. Still, the 2004 Ferrari 360 Modena F1 is as close to a real car, a traditional car, a usable car, as the fabled Italian car maker has ever produced. For the first time, Ferrari has addressed such things as interior space, basic ergonomics and overall comfort, not to mention an automatic transmission, which makes this the first of the brand's mid-engine supercars that can truly be driven everyday. Model Lineup The Ferrari 360 comes in two body styles; the Berlinetta (hardtop) and the Spider (convertible). Both are offered with a either a conventional 6-speed manual or a trick semi-automatic 6-speed transmission. -

The Monza 1000Km: 1965-2008
www.porscheroadandrace.com The Monza 1000km: 1965-2008 Published: 31st October 2016 By: Glen Smale Online version: https://www.porscheroadandrace.com/the-monza-1000km-1965-2008/ The author starts his book, The Monza 1000km: 1965-2008, by calling the first chapter, the years between 1965-1971, the ‘Golden Years’ and he is not the only one to do so. While the cars were rather ‘explosive’ in their performance, drivers and team personalities could also be rather explosive in character. This all added up to a splendid spectacle… which is what the spectators paid good money to come and see. The grids were full of 12-cylinder cars from Italy, 8-cylinder cars from the USA, and 6-and 4- cylinder cars from Germany. Indeed, the resultant competition between the Ferraris, Ford GTs and the Porsches were the very battles that the enthusiasts had come to watch, and the racing was every bit as exciting as the cars and the drivers. There can be few other locations around the world like the Monza Autodrome, where at the time, emotions would run as high as they did there. Perhaps justifiably, Ferrari regarded it as their ‘backyard’ and therefore they came to win in front of the partisan Italian crowds. But Ford and Porsche came intent on spoiling Ferrari’s fun at the first opportunity. That Monza became a steaming cauldron, a centre of such high passions, is therefore unsurprising. www.porscheroadandrace.com The author, Aldo Zana, has done a truly admirable job of marrying the highly charged atmosphere of Monza with the charismatic drivers, the powerful cars, and the enthusiastic crowds, into one colourful and memorable publication. -

FERRARI 275 GTB 4 CAM ALLOY NART From 1964 to 1968 almost 800 iconic, beautiful 275 Berlinettas were produced. Two years after the introduction of the two cam 275, a more powerful four cam version was launched. The four cam engined cars had the later beautiful long nose body and were only visually distinct from their earlier brethren by virtue of a prominent hood bulge that made room for the 6 Weber dual throat carburetor setup made standard on the four cams. During the run of the two cams the factory produced several competition versions, since front engine sports cars were still competitive in 1964- 65. By late 1966 when the four cam engine was introduced that era was effectively over, so the Ferrari factory never produced a competition 275 GTB/4. However during the Berlinetta production run alloy body versions were manufactured to special order. These light aluminum, alloy, bodies weighed about 260 pounds less than the steel bodied cars and contributed tremendously to improved performance. For the two cam Berlinettas approximately 27 alloy bodies were constructed with two gauges of aluminum used and a variety of standard and lightweight chassis, equipped with 275 engines in an amazing variety of tune that only a racing organization like Ferrari could produce. With the advent of the four cam, with about 330 produced, only 17-19 or so alloy bodies were made. These alloy cars were not an easy sell since their thin aluminum panels could be easily dented by a casual bump. Indeed one early owner of 10311 reported frequent body damage requiring repairs, like the time his lawn men bent in the trunk lid pushing the car off the grass. -
