Vehicle Details
AI Listing Summary
This 1950 Ferrari 166 MM Barchetta, chassis 0038M, is a historically significant factory racing car, one of only three 1950 Touring Barchettas originally built with one door. It boasts an impressive racing history, including 2nd overall at the 1950 Mille Miglia, and was driven by legends like Ascari and Chinetti. Notably, the car was rebuilt as a 212 Coupe with Vignale coachwork before being restored to its original barchetta configuration, with the Vignale body included in the sale.
Condition
7
While the car has been restored to its original Touring-style barchetta coachwork, it has undergone a re-body as a 212 Coupe with new coachwork by Vignale in the past. The listing mentions that the Vignale Coupe body is retained and offered alongside the car today. Additionally, the car has participated in numerous races and events, indicating regular use and potential wear, despite its maintained mechanical preparation. There is no information about visible wear in paint, interior, or wheels.
