A low-mileage 1972 Ferrari 365 GTB/4 Daytona is being offered for sale by Silverstone Auctions at its inaugural ‘A Sale of Ferraris in association with Ferrari Owners’ Club GB’ at Silverstone circuit on 18th May.
One of only 158 UK-supplied cars, and one of just 15 finished in Argento Auteuil, the exquisite Daytona will headline the auction house’s first ever Ferrari marque dedicated sale since partnering with the prestigious car club.
Supplied by Maranello to H.W. Motors of Walton-Upon-Thames on 10th May 1972, chassis #15835 was delivered new to classic car enthusiast and historic racer Mr Jeremy Agace, with air conditioning as an optional extra. Its original number plate, ‘MPB 125K’, is still worn by the car to this day.
In 2012 the car benefited from a fastidious full engine rebuild under the watchful eye of Iain Tyrell and his team at Cheshire Classic Cars, as well as a restoration of the original Blue Connelly hide interior, door trims and dashboard using period correct materials, courtesy of an ex-Connolly craftsman.
Today this very special Ferrari presents in excellent condition reading just 35,900 miles and will be offered for auction with an estimate of £500,000 to £575,000.
