Chassis:
The very last Comp/61 or 'SEFAC Hot Rod' built, chassis 3005GT was sold new to Luigi Chinetti. It was finished in metallic grey and fitted by the factory with six Weber carburettors. Chinetti's North American Racing Team (NART) entered the very quick in the Paris 1000 km at Montlhery for Pedro and Ricardo Rodriguez. The very young and equally talented Mexicans won the race outright. Throughout the 1962 season, it was campaigned in the United States by Doug Thiem, finishing on the podium many times and winning at Elkhart Lake. It subsequently passed through various American hands until it was acquired by an Italian enthusiast in 1980. He retained the highly original SEFAC Hot Rod until 2011, regularly fielding it in historic events. The current, Swiss owner had the car repainted to its original metallic grey. He has continued making appearances with the car on both sides of the Atlantic.
