Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1950 Ferrari 166 MM Berlinetta Le Mans, chassis 0060 M, is a significant piece of Ferrari history, being one of only five Touring Berlinettas built on the 166 MM chassis. Originally sold to Briggs Cunningham and raced in period, it retains its original engine, gearbox, and differential. Recently maintained by Paul Russell and Company, it is a ticket to major international events.
Condition
8
While the car has been restored to its original Sebring livery and has been maintained by Paul Russell and Company, the listing mentions that the car achieved Second in Class at the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance® in 2001 post-restoration. The car has also participated in several races and exhibitions, indicating that it is driven and used, albeit carefully. Therefore, a rating of 8 seems appropriate.
