Blu Dino over Pelle Beige Leather with Black Inserts on Daytona style seats, 5.0 liter Flat 12-Cylinder Engine, 5-Speed Manual Gearbox, Ferrari ‘Red Book’ Classiche Certified, Current Major Service, 1 of 929 Produced, Exceptional Example of a Carbureted Berlinetta Boxer, Just Over 50,000 Kilometers from new.
This 512 BB was supplied new by Crepaldi to its first Milan-based owner in 1979 before it was sold to its second owner at 12,000 Kilometers in 1983. It remained with its second owner for 25 years and only accrued 3,000 Kilometers while in their care. It was then sold to its third Austrian-based owner with just 15,000 Kilometers. Circa 2012, the current and fourth owner purchased this exceptional Ferrari and imported it to the US. It has been in their loving care for the last 13 years where it has remained as part of a larger collection of special Ferrari’s, and now shows just over 50,000 Kilometers from new.
As part of Classiche certification, it has undergone a full cosmetic and mechanical refurbishment by the Ferrari workshop in Maranello and received ASI registration while in Italy. In May of 2022, a major “engine out” service was performed by a franchised Ferrari dealership which included disassembly and cleaning of the engine, replacement of filters, seals, fluids, and timing belt.
We are pleased to offer this Ferrari with its leather bound Classiche ‘Red Book’ folder, owner’s manual, tool kit, spare wheel and tire, keys, fitted luggage, and history file. This 512 BB is exceptional throughout, has wonderful provenance, and is ready for immediate use and enjoyment. As only 929 highly-desirable carbureted examples were produced, there are only a limited number available in private circulation with such wonderful history, originality, and remarkable condition.
