Any original Ferrari GT 250 Spyder that was built back in the early 1960's is now rightly a museum piece worth millions. Less than 50 are known to still exist. The original version's power plant was a 3.0 L, 240-260 hp, SOHC V-12 engine with down-draft Webers. A Tremec T5, 5-speed transmits the power and the car rolls on 8-inch wide, wire knock-off wheels and Michelin 60-series XGT rubber. With the power train was complete, the interior was next, beginning with authentic looking seats, originally from a Fiat and recovered in tan leather. Door panels and matching carpet add to the look. The prototype California Spider (chassis 0769 GT) was nearly unchanged from the TdF, with the exception of its convertible top. By mid-1958, the California Spider had adopted an engine with reinforced connecting rods and crankshaft (type 128D) and a new chassis (type 508D), but it still retained the 250’s original wheelbase of 2,600 millimeters. In the echelons of motoring, few machines rank higher than Ferrari’s 250 GT Spyder California. Produced between 1957 and 1963, the Spyder California was effectively an open top variant of the racey 250 GT Berlinetta that proved itself the car to beat in Grand Touring competition during the late 1950s. lPrh.
