Chassis:
Sold new to Italian gentleman racer Albino Buticchi, this is the second to last 14 Louver Tour de France built. Within days after taking delivery, he entered the car in the 1957 Mille Miglia and finished ninth overall and fourth in class. Buticchi continued to race the 250 GT with considerable success in a variety of Italian events and later in the year repainted it from red to silver. He sold the car early in 1958, and after a succession of Italian owners, it was sold to the United States in the late 1960s. By that time, it had been mildly modified by Tom Meade. Norman Silver briefly owned the car before it was in the collection of John Apen for two decades. He sold the car to Craig McCaw in 1997. In his ownership, chassis 0703GT was completely restored by Denison International to its original configuration. In 2010, the car placed second in class at Pebble Beach and three years later it crossed the block in the annual Gooding & Co. auction for a sale-topping $9.5 million.
