As Marcel Massini, the pre-eminent Ferrari historian declared, “Ferrari’s 250 LM is one of the most spectacular mid-engined sports cars ever built — a true competition race car rarer than the legendary 250 GTO, and the last Ferrari to win the grueling 24-hour race at Le Mans.”
Chassis number 6107 is the 24th car of only 32 Ferrari 250 LM examples produced, and it is particularly special because its first owner did not have racing in mind when he acquired the car. In fact, the car was used exclusively as a road car and enjoyed as such on open California roads!
Steven Earle, of Santa Barbara, CA, is well known within the vintage-racing community as the founder and longtime organizer of the Monterey Historic Automobile Races. Earle ordered this car during the early summer of 1964 through Rezzaghi Motors in San Francisco, CA. The factory completed the chassis on July 23, 1964, with the body being eventually finished in Rosso Cina paint (a deep shade of red) and equipped with the LM’s standard spartan road-car amenities, including blue corduroy cloth upholstery. Following completion, 6107 was shipped to San Francisco directly by air, and it was delivered to Mr. Earle in November 1964.
