Chassis:
The first of three 330 Ps built for the 1964 season, chassis 0818 was sold new to British privateer Maranello Concessionaires. They entered it for the likes of Graham Hill, Joakim Bonnier and Innes Ireland. It finished second behind a sister car at Le Mans. Later in the year Hill won the Tourist Trophy at Goodwood and joined by Bonnier he also won the 1000 km of Paris race at Monthlery. Chassis 0818 was raced three times in 1965 before being sold to Dick Protheroe. The British gentleman racer had the car re-bodied to P2 style by Drogo. Sadly he crashed fatally with the car in the practice of the Oulton Park TT.
The remains were eventually acquired by Mike Oustromoff, who used the original engine and chassis for a reconstruction. After a brief spell in the United States, the car was bought by Fabrizio Violati in 1985 for his Maranello Rosso museum. In recent years the car was involved in a lawsuit because a second person claimed ownership of the car. Early in 2011 the Italian courts ruled in favour of the Violati estate. During 2014, the entire Maranello Rosso Collection was sold, and while most of the cars were subsequently sold at auction, chassis 0818 was first offered by Talacrest and in September of 2015 as a private treaty by auctioneer Bonhams.
