This Ferrari 412P is one of just four examples ever built and has been converted for street use car auto cars
built the 412P at the height of its Le Mans rivalry with Ford. Only four examples were ever manufactured, each built to the spec of the private teams that would race them. All were converted from 330 P3 race cars and of the four, two were built for NART and Scuderia Filipinetti while the other two were commissioned by Ecurie Francorchamps and Maranello Concessionaries.
The 412P heading to auction in August was raced by Maranello Concessionaries. While it did not claim any race victories during its debut season, it did finish third at Spa and was running just outside the top 10 at the 24 Hours of Le Mans before it retired due to an oil pump failure. In 1968, the car was sold, repainted green and raced in both
and South Africa. It retired from racing later that year before being sold to a U.S. resident who converted it into a street car.
