Reborn 1971 Ferrari 365 GTB/4 Daytona ‘wreck’ up for grabs

A Ferrari 365 GTB/4 Daytona that has not been on the road since 1974 is to be offered for sale. Chassis number 14273 is a right-hand drive, UK market example with pop-up headlights, originally collected from the Ferrari factory in May 1971. In 1974, the car was involved in an accident, and in rescuing the car, chains were wrapped around the body, causing a lot of extra damage. The wreck was sold to someone wanting to build a 365 GTS/4 Daytona Spider recreation, the roof being cut off and discarded.


However, the car was stored for nearly 30 years before being acquired in 2006. Since then it’s undergone a ground-up rebuild, including extensive repairs to the chassis, a genuine Scaglietti front section and new body panels to return it to its original Berlinetta configuration.
