Ferrari 365 GT4 Berlinetta Boxer 1974

General description : Right-Hand Drive 1974 Ferrari 365 GT4 Berlinetta Boxer: Matching Numbers and 1 of 58 Built in RHD This 1974 Ferrari 365 GT4 Berlinetta Boxer is one of only 58 built in right-hand drive configuration for the UK market. Chassis number '17649' left the factory finished in stunning Blu Chiaro with beige Connolly leather interior. A matching numbers example with known ownership history. It was extensively restored by Keys Motorsport 2014-2020 and has only covered circa 500 miles since completion. It currently runs and drives great and is in excellent condition throughout.  The car was delivered to Colonel Ronnie Hoare's Maranello Concessionaires in the UK and sold to its first owner, one D K Shead, in March 1974. The original registration was '77 D'. In the early 1980s the Ferrari changed hands, passing to one A G F Oldworth and being re-registered as 'CJ 15'. Next owner Peter English reregistered the Boxer as 'RLJ 565M' in 1984, and the registration changed yet again, on this occasion to '8332 RE', when Roger L Earl of Surrey acquired the car in 1985. The next private owner listed in the accompanying Massini Report is Mr Christopher Roberts, who owned the Ferrari in the mid-1990s, at which time it carried the registration 'DBY 462M' (the current mark). Mr David Tregar was the next owner (in the late 1990s) followed by Mr Ian Entwistle (circa 2000). On 25th January 2006 the Ferrari was registered in the UK to Mr Andrew Stear of London, from whom it was purchased by the previous owner in June 2012. Bills on file show that the car was initially maintained by Bob Houghton before being extensively restored by marque specialists Keys Motorsport of Silverstone between 2014 and 2020 at a cost of more than 94,000.  Unquestionably one of the greatest cars Ferrari has ever built, and its first to feature a flat-12 engine, the 365 GT4 Berlinetta Boxer debuted at the 1971 Turin Show in prototype form and commenced production in 1973 almost unaltered. At the time of its introduction the 365 GT4 Berlinetta Boxer was the world's fastest and most expensive car. Only 367 were constructed between 1973 and 1976 and it remains one of the most desirable and sought after of all Ferraris.  1974 Ferrari 365 GT4 Berlinetta BoxerRegistration no.

About Ferrari
The first Ferrari road car was the 125 S introduced in 1947 and powered by a 1.5 L V12 engine, right?
Well it's not quite that simple, Ferrari did in fact produce e Tipo 815, in 1940. Tipo 815 was designed by ex-Alfa Romeo engineers Alberto Massimino and Vittorio Bellentani and by Enrico Nardi under Enzo's company but legal issues with the former associate Alfa Romeo prevented Ferrari from launching the Ferrari marque at that point.

Enzo did produce a series of fine road cars in the 50's and 60's but they were merely to finance his true passion racing, wheather GT/Sports car or Grand Prix. The 50's saw the birth of Ferrari's most memorable cars, 250 GTB (tour de France) 250 Testa Rossa, 250 GT swb just to name a few.

Under the surface tension was growing though. In November 1961 long-time sales manager Girolamo Gardini made an ultimatum to Enzo: if tensions continued, he would leave the company. As a result, Gardini was ousted, as well as Scuderia Ferrari manager Romolo Tavoni, chief engineer Carlo Chiti, experimental sports car development chief Giotto Bizzarrini, and a number of others who stood by them.
Without Chiti and Bizzarrini the development of what was to become the most quintessential Ferrari and today the world's most expensive car, 250 GTO, was at a pivoting point. 250 GTO project was saved by a young engineer Mauro Forghieri and long-time racing bodyman Sergio Scaglietti who stepped in and took over the program with known results.

In addition to 250 GTO, Ferrari launced such master pieces as 250 LM, 250P, 275 GTB, 365 GTB/4 "Daytona" during the the 60's
By the late 60's Ferrari's prototypes' success came to a sudden halt by a new competitor, GT40. Ford turned to Lola to produce a Ferrari beating long distance racer after Enzo had cut the deal off with Henry Ford II making the latter absolutely boil with fury. The collaboration between Ford and Lola created the mighty Ford GT40 that gave Ferrari some heavy hits in Le Mans 24 to come.
By the end of the 60's FIAT purchased 50% of the company, starting a development that has led to a new mass-produced era of Ferraris.
