History of the Ferrari 250 GT Coupe Pininfarina
In order to guarantee his company's finances, Enzo Ferrari commissioned Pinin Farina to design a basic and beautiful 250 GT coupé. Following the Boano/Ellena 250 GT Coupé, Pinin Farina's Grugliasco factory expanded and could now produce the new Pinin Farina 250 GT Coupé. It debuted in Milan in 1958, and by 1960, 335 near-identical versions had been built.
The GT Coupé did away with fender vents in favour of simplified, clean lines and a notchback shape with a panoramic rear window. The circular grille has given way to a more traditional long, thin form with projecting headlights. In the older 250s, telescopic shock absorbers replaced the Houdailles, and disc brakes were added in 1960. The last 250 GT Coupé with a Superfast tail debuted at the 1961 London Motor Show. Prince Bertil of Sweden was one of the notable buyers.
