Powered by the Colombo-derived 3.3L\u00a0Tipo 213 SOHC V-12 engine, the 275 series followed Ferrari tradition with its numerical model designation signifying the 275cc swept volume of each cylinder.

Minute, almost imperceptible, differences between them make each car a unique masterpiece. Running updates during production brought an attractive \u201clong nose\u201d frontal treatment for greater high-speed stability, and by early 1966, a desirable torque-tube driveline configuration offering lower vibration. According to Ferrari experts, as few as 453 examples of the early short- and long-nose 275 GTBs were produced altogether in 1965-66 before the advent of the \u201cfour cam\u201d 275 GTB\/4 produced in 1966-68. Given Ferrari\u2019s low-volume production processes and elite clientele, it was predictable that higher-performance versions of the 275 GTB would be made available for greater on-road performance and the possibility of entering circuit races or road rallies.<\/p>\n<figure class='gallery-item'>\r\n            <div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\r\n                <a href='https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/06-2.jpg' class='tipi-lightbox'>\r\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/06-2.jpg'><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1001\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/06-2.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/06-2.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/06-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/06-2-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/06-2-100x67.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/06-2-770x514.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/06-2-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/06-2-1155x770.jpg 1155w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/06-2-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/06-2-293x196.jpg 293w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/06-2-1400x934.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><\/a>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\r\n            <\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\r\n            <div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\r\n                <a href='https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/07-2.jpg' class='tipi-lightbox'>\r\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/07-2.jpg'><img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1001\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/07-2.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/07-2.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/07-2-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/07-2-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/07-2-100x67.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/07-2-770x514.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/07-2-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/07-2-1155x770.jpg 1155w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/07-2-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/07-2-293x196.jpg 293w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/07-2-1400x934.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><\/a>\r\n\t\t\t\t<\/a>\r\n            <\/div><\/figure>\n<p>This wonderfully preserved 1966 Ferrari 275 GTB is one of those rare, higher-specification examples, factory-equipped with an upgraded intake system mounting six Weber twin-choke carburetors versus the customary triple-Weber setup.

The vehicle eventually joined Egan on his moves to Michigan and North Carolina during his ownership, and he and his wife, Jo, showed the Ferrari at various FCA meetings, including the annual Grosse Pointe Yacht Club event near Detroit, where it garnered Best of Show in 1973. In 1977, Egan sold 08431 to John Levy of Arlington, Virginia, with the car then being sold again in 1978 to Ron Spangler of Prancing Horse Farm in Bel Air, Maryland, where the car was displayed in 1980, followed by exhibition at Al Turner\u2019s Spring Party in 1981. In 1982, the Ferrari was sold to Marc Tauber of Morristown, New Jersey, who offered the car for sale later that year, advertising it as being exceptionally original with 9,600 miles and \u201c\u2026 virtually brand new in every respect.\u201d Mr. Tauber sold 08431 to Jim Wickstead of Cedar Knolls, New Jersey, who retained the Ferrari until 1997, when a subsequent owner acquired the car, under whom the engine was rebuilt and the suspension and brakes upgraded. In early 2017, 08431 was acquired by the current owner.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/08.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-680916\" src=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/08.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1500\" height=\"1001\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/08.jpg 1500w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/08-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/08-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/08-100x67.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/08-770x514.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/08-360x240.jpg 360w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/08-1155x770.jpg 1155w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/08-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/08-293x196.jpg 293w, https:\/\/www.supercars.net\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/07\/08-1400x934.jpg 1400w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1500px) 100vw, 1500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>As offered, this high-specification, six-carb 275 GTB has accumulated only 21,000 miles, believed original, and retains the matching-numbers 3.3L Colombo V-12 engine, mated to the proper 5-speed manual gearbox\/rear transaxle.
