Comments: |
The car has been delivered originally in Italy through Crepaldi Automobili to its |
| first Milano based owner Conti Rag. Antonio in 1967 which is shown by its early | |
| Italian paperwork. It was ordered in its beautiful colour combination as Azzurro | |
| with Beige interior. It was then sold to a person in Torino who later sold it to | |
| Kenneth Johnson-Stuart who brought it to the Chicago area. Johnson-Stuart later | |
| stored it in a garage at Lake Geneva, Wisconsin for 7 to 8 years during which | |
| time is was not driven. |
| In late 1982 it was sold to Joe Marchetti's International Auto LTD, Chicago, | |
| Illinois, USA. It found a new home with Dr. James Holland who purchased it on | |
| January 12th in 1983 showing 33 917 km on the odometer.. Up from this | |
| point the archive file for this 330 GTC shows an enormous amount of service | |
| and maintenance records until March 2019. |
| After 12 years of ownership Dr. Holland found the decision to sell it to the next | |
| enthusiast Dr. Stanley J. Opella living in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in | |
| September 1995. In this time the odometer has shown a mileage of 48 637 km. |
| It changed hands the last time in the US when it was bought by Dr. Robert | |
| Destanislao in late 2001 with a confirmed mileage of 60212 km.Two years later | |
| we had discovered this 330 GTC while we were visiting the Cavallino Ferrari event | |
| in Florida. Short time later we got the chance to buy it and shipped it back to | |
| Europe. |
| In 2005 it was bought by its new Vienna based owner Dipl. Ing. Rudolf Schraml | |
| who was known for his passion for cars and especially for Ferrari being in the | |
| same time the proud owner of a beautiful red Ferrari 275 GTS. Dipl.Ing. Rudolf | |
| Schraml was as well known as one of the famous participants of the Ennstal | |
| Classic Rallye in Austria having managed to win the race more than once. Due to | |
| his more and more visible health problems Dipl. Ing Schraml was forced to sell | |
| his beloved 330 GTC to its last owner in 2008 who has frequently used it by | |
| ralleying. Today it shows an overall mileage of 82 150 km. |
| In 2008 it received its Certificazione di Autenticita by Ferrari confirming its | |
| original colour combination as Azzurro 19278 M IT. with Pelle Beige VM 3218 | |
| and even more important confirming its original engine and gearbox being | |
| stamped correctly with its original numero interna. |
| Our new 330 GTC has been maintained and serviced over a period of near to 40 | |
| years which is documented by its large archive file. It had very few long term | |
| owners who obviously have taken care of this thoroughbred. The overall mileage | |
| is confimerd by millions of bills and service records. The car shows today an | |
| original and mostly unrestored car which drives very well. |
| If someone is looking for history and originality this is the 330 GTC to go for. |
| The Ferrari 330 GTC is one of the best driving classic Ferrari out of the sixties. It | |
| benfitted of the most important new developments done by Ferrari. It received | |
| the new 4000 ccm and 300 bhp engine, the 5- Speed gearbox which was | |
| mounted as a trans axle system, independent front and rear suspension and all | |
| around disc brakes. The engine was connected to the gearbox with a torque | |
| tube which helped to avoid any vibration from the drive train. |
| Having all this in mind it is not surprising why most of the Ferrari collectors are | |
| keen to have one of these beautiful thoroughbreds in their garages. |
