Chassis:
Featured is one of the five 340 Americas that originally received a Vignale Spyder body with its trademark large grille and oval portholes in the fenders. Being one of the Scuderia Ferrari Works cars, it was raced at the 1952 Mille Miglia and 24 Hours of Le Mans, but failed to finish on both occasions. It was subsequently fitted with a Berlinetta body by Vignale and possibly also with a larger, 4.5 litre V12 engine. It has been restored to its original shape in recent year and as can been seen above, is actively raced. S/N 0196A is pictured above at the 2006 Monaco Historic Grand Prix, Le Mans Classic and Goodwood Revival.
