Chassis:
Used as a Works car in 1932, chassis 2111032 was sold early in 1933 to Scuderia Ferrari. They had the original Monza body replaced by Zagato built Spider coachwork. Ferrari entered the car in the Mille Miglia for Tazio Nuvolari. He drove the car to victory in the legendary road race. The 8C 2300 served Scuderia Ferrari for several more seasons and was during this period rebodied to its original Monza shape.
After its Ferrari ownership, the Monza continued to be raced extensively as late is 1948 when it took part in the opening weekend at Goodwood. After spells in Africa and Europe, the car was bought by its current, American owner. He showed the car, wearing its Mille Miglia winning number 98, at the 2005 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance.
