Description
Introduced at the 1960 Paris Motor Show, the 250 GTE carried over a modified version of the 2,600mm-wheelbase 508 chassis used in previous 250 variants. A more-forward engine placement allowed the accommodation of standard rear seats, a first for Ferrari. Produced in three series, the model featured Pininfarina bodywork combining steel construction with an aluminum hood and trunk panels.
This example wore an older repaint in its current shade of Rosso Rubino when purchased by the current owner…
Introduced at the 1960 Paris Motor Show, the 250 GTE carried over a modified version of the 2,600mm-wheelbase 508 chassis used in previous 250 variants. A more-forward engine placement allowed the accommodation of standard rear seats, a first for Ferrari. Produced in three series, the model featured Pininfarina bodywork combining steel construction with an aluminum hood and trunk panels.
This example wore an older repaint in its current shade of Rosso Rubino when purchased by the current owner and is said to have been again refinished within the last two years. Additional work under current ownership is said to have included the replacement of the floor pans. Series I design features include slim inset headlight bezels, grille-mounted driving lights, and chrome Superamerica-style taillight housings.
Borrani wire wheels were refinished under current ownership and are secured by three-eared knock-offs, while 185/70VR15 Michelin XWX tires are mounted all around. Stopping is handled by servo-assisted Dunlop four-wheel disc brakes, and a refresh under current ownership is said to have included a rebuild of the master cylinder, replacement of the brake light switch, and a fluid flush.
The cabin was re-trimmed after the current owner’s purchase with black leather over 2+2 seating and matching upholstery over the door panels, center tunnel, and dash. Replacement carpeting is said to have been installed over sound-deadening material, and the headliner was removed and cleaned. Additional work is said to have included a rebuild of the windshield wiper motor and replacement of the windshield washer pump, heater valve, and left-side window regulator.
The wood-rimmed steering wheel sits ahead of Veglia instrumentation including a 300-km/h speedometer, an 8k-rpm tachometer, and an oil pressure gauge. The five-digit odometer shows 67k kilometers (~41k miles), approximately 1,300 of which have been added under current ownership. Instruments to the driver’s right include a clock and gauges monitoring oil temperature, coolant temperature, and fuel level, while a Becker pushbutton radio is situated in the upper console.
The 3.0-liter Tipo 128 V12 features an aluminum block and aluminum cylinder heads with spark plugs positioned on the outer side of each bank as well as coil valve springs and individual intake ports. The triple Weber carburetors are said to have been rebuilt during the mechanical refresh under current ownership, as were the mechanical fuel pump and fuel pressure regulator. Additional work during the project reportedly included a rebuild of the water pump, wiring repairs, cleaning and resealing of the fuel tank, a cooling system flush, an oil change, and replacement of the ignition points and condenser, fuel filters, fuel-level sender, thermostat, and coolant hoses.
Power is sent to the rear wheels via an all-synchromesh four-speed manual transmission with Laycock de Normanville overdrive. The gearbox is said to have been refreshed with replacement main shaft bushings under current ownership, and the clutch assembly was replaced. Suspension work during the project reportedly included rebuilds of the Koni shock absorbers and replacement of various bushings, while the steering gearbox was rebuilt and the kingpins were replaced. The quad-outlet exhaust system is also said to have been replaced.
