Chassis no. 14863; Engine no. B1486. Giallo Fly with black cloth top over black leather. 4390/352hp, Veglia air conditioning, power windows, chrome spoke Borrani wire wheels, Michelin XWX tires, Momo leather rim steering wheel, Marelli ignition modules, painted nose panel, popup headlights, manuals, tool roll.

Evaluation: 1972 New York Auto Show display car. Ferrari Classiche Red Book certified, 2008 Cavalino Platinum winner. Represented as the numbers-matching engine and gearbox with 13,447 miles from new. Very good paint in the original color, and major chrome. Some trim chrome is lightly scratched and thin. The engine compartment is dusty and has a bit of oily residue. The cosmetics are very good and the rest of the car has been looked after without needing restoration.

Bottom Line: A factory Daytona Spider that has always been a collector car, had continuous ownership by informed and caring Ferrari owners and never needed restoration while accumulating scant miles during fifty years of life. There are a few condition issues, but they are of little importance or significance. This is a result that should satisfy both the seller and the new owner.
