The 365 GT 2+2 has been produced in the works in 1970 and delivered in |
January 1971 through S.A.V.A.F. Geneve to its first owner in Switzerland. |
It is one of the last 365 GT 2+2 in the long production run of this model. It was | |
sold to its first and famous Ferrari enthusiast Dr. Peter F. Baumberger. Peter was | |
a lawyer and very successful business man based in Geneva. He was married | |
with Mrs. Dorrance, which inherited the famous Campbell Soup company in the | |
USA. By this Baumberger had two step sons with which he founded in 1967 the | |
Scuderia Three Bears which had taken place successfully on local races and | |
hillclimbs in Switzerland. In that time he ordered three 275 GTB/4 for his sons | |
and himself, one of those was an Alloy version which still is owned by the | |
Baumberger/Dorrance family. |
The history of the Baumberger family has been published in an article written by | |
famous Ferrari historian Marcel Massini in the Cavallino magazin in October | |
1987. A copy of the article will accompany the archive file of our 365 GT 2+2. |
The car will be accompanied by its original Bulletin De Garantie issued on Mr. | |
Baumberger by Ferrari. This is more than rare to receive an original Guarantee | |
card for a 52 year old Ferrari.. Beside this there are the original manual and the | |
original parts book in the archive file. |
The 365 GT 2+2 has been for a while in Germany. In 2016 major work has been | |
carried out by one of the most appreciated Ferrari independent workshops in | |
Germany. Beside lots of other work the cylinder heads had been rebuilt. The | |
archive file shows invoices exceeding 40.000,- Euros only in 2016. |
It still has its original interior and dashboard in wonderful preserved condition. | |
We received in September 2020 the Lettera Dati Conferma by Ferrari confirming | |
to be full matching numbers of engine, gearbox and differential. |
After having bought this 365 GT 2+2 we carried out some more major work in | |
our workshop. The gearbox had been rebuilt and lots of other maintenance work | |
was carried out. We replaced the wider Borrano wheels which are shown on the | |
pics with a new set of the correct Borrani RW 4075 wheels. The internal invoices | |
from November 2021 until April 2022 are at appr. 60.000,- Euros. |
The last engine leak down test shows perfect results. |
After all this work carried out we can reassure the next enthusiast that he will | |
receive a car which drives and runs perfectly. |
