One of the absolute stars of the upcoming RM Auctions Villa Erba sale will be this Ferrari 340/375 MM Pinin Farina Berlinetta (chassis 0320AM). Equipped with low drag body work, it was one of three Ferrari works cars entered in the 1953 edition of the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Sadly, the car was disqualified on a technicality. Fitted with a larger 375 MM-spec engine it was later pressed into service at the Carrera Panamericana. Following a long spell in the United States, it has been in British hands for the last decade. Although no estimate has been given, the only other survivor of the trio sold for EUR 4.3 million six years ago, and the prices have gone up considerably since then. Both cars are featured in our 30-shot gallery of the 340/375 MM Pinin Farina Berlinetta.
Other exciting cars on the roster for Villa Erba include the very first MG Magnette K3 and the very rare Moretti 750 Grand Sport. Also included in the 40-car catalog are each of Ferrari's supercars; the 288 GTO, F40, F50 and Enzo.
RM Auctions will certainly hope to build on the results achieved last week at the Don Davis Collection sale where a Ferrari 330 GTS sold for just over $1.9 million and a Toyota 2000 GT achieved seven figures for the first time, selling for an impressive $1.15 million.
