Description of the original vehicle:
This 250 LM was sold along with several others to the Swiss privateer and his Scuderia Filipinetti. The car made its debut at the 1000 km race in Monthléry in 1964. In 1965, it finished sixth overall at Le Mans and won its class in the Swiss Championship at Monza. The car was later sold to Pierre de Siebenthal and then moved to the United Kingdom, where it was part of the collections of Anthony Bamford, Don Nelson and Martin Hilton. The former Scuderia Filipinetti 250 LM was added to a Middle Eastern collection in 2010 and then completely restored by Ferrari.
Dieter Spoerry was one of the most successful Swiss racing drivers of the 1960s. He and his co-driver Armand Boller competed in the 24 Hours of Le Mans in June 1965 with chassis 6119 for Scuderia Filipinetti. Four other Ferrari 250 LMs were also on the starting grid. Spoerry/Boller qualified in 25th place and finished sixth overall in the race with start number 27.
