Description
The 250 GTE was Ferrari’s first model with standard rear seating, which was accommodated by altering the 508 chassis used in previous 250 variants while retaining a 2,600mm wheelbase. The front bodywork on this example was modified to resemble that of a 250 California Spyder at some point prior to 2005, with the headlights set back under fairings and a scoop integrated into the hood. Riveted fender vents and Series III-style taillights were also added.

The 250 GTE was Ferrari’s first model with standard rear seating, which was accommodated by altering the 508 chassis used in previous 250 variants while retaining a 2,600mm wheelbase. The front bodywork on this example was modified to resemble that of a 250 California Spyder at some point prior to 2005, with the headlights set back under fairings and a scoop integrated into the hood. Riveted fender vents and Series III-style taillights were also added.
The body is finished in red with a dark navy blue center stripe accentuated by yellow borders along with black rocker panels. Cosmetic work included removal of dents in the trunk and rear valance.
Borrani knock-off wire wheels wear 215/70R15 Michelin HydroEdge tires. Refreshment of the servo-assisted four-wheel disc brakes in 2014 included replacement of the booster check valve and hose as well as the hard lines. Independent front suspension comprises unequal-length wishbones and coil springs, while the rear end features a leaf-sprung live axle with radius arms. Telescopic shock absorbers are used all around.
Black upholstery covers the 2+2 seating as well as the door panels, dash, and custom center console. The transmission tunnel has been altered to accommodate drivetrain changes, and hosts a relocated Hurst shifter and handbrake lever. The seat rails and accelerator pedal were also modified
A wood-rimmed Nardi steering wheel is mounted on a tiltable column and frames a 140-mph speedometer, a tachometer, and a fuel gauge from Classic Instruments.
The battery is housed in the trunk along with a cutoff switch and a 25-gallon fuel cell.
The fuel-injected 350ci LT1 Gen II V8 was serviced in 2014 with a throttle body overhaul as well as replacement of the injector seals, spark plugs and wires, block drain plugs, and valve covers. The block, intake manifold, water pump cover, and drive pulley were refinished, and the gaskets for the oil pan, intake, and exhaust were changed. An AFCO aluminum radiator was installed along with blue silicone cooling hoses and dual electric fans, and the LT1 wiring harness was modified to accommodate the latter. The engine bay was painted to match the body, while the shock tower covers were finished in silver.
Power is sent to the rear wheels via a Tremec T5 five-speed manual transmission, a custom driveshaft, and a Ferrari rear axle. A relined clutch disc and a new throwout bearing were installed, modifications were made to the clutch hydraulic system, and the axle seals were replaced in 2014. Various areas of the chassis were coated with POR-15, and holes in the trunk were plugged.
