Chassis: 0626
Chassis 0626 made its debut at the 1956 Mille Miglia in the hands of Juan Manuel Fangio, who always usually competed in the great road race alone. He finished fourth behind the three other Tipo 520 Ferraris. In the remainder of the season, this example recorded two more podium finishes. Entered by American Temple Buell but piloted by Ferrari Works drivers, chassis 0626 won the 1957 Buenos Aires 1000 km race. It was used extensively that season by the likes of Jo Bonnier and Masten Gregory but no more wins were scored. After changing hands several times, this 290 MM joined the impressive Mas du Clos Collection in 1970. The current owner acquired the car from the collection in 2004 and it is seen here during the 2006 Goodwood Revival where the career of Phil Hill was celebrated and again in 2011 for a Fangio tribute.
