They often give serial numbers on their window sticker, but not in this case and have been given a few details on it - except of the Serial Number.
First fact was the built date -1958. Not too much, Second hint was the destination of delivery when new: the USA. The third aspect was the "Ferrari Eberlein-Classiche" sticker on the window. Toting up the details, adding the colour combination made us 98 % sure of the Serial Number. The disturbing thing were the painted shields on the fenders. They look fading from the distance, but coming close one will notice that they have been painted quite recently.
We already suspected the car to be 0869GT shortly after our return from Classic Remise on Saturday. Our research confirmed a) 1958 b) new to the US c) on display with Eberlein at this year's Techno Classica in Essen. A request to our highly appreciated network confirmed our guess. The car is 0869GT!
