The daddy Daytona
1971 Ferrari 365GTB/4 Daytona Gr. IV For sale at Artcurial, Le Mans Classic, July 7, artcurial.com
Why buy it? This was the very car that carried Coco Chinetti and Bob Grossman to fifth place in the 1971 Le Mans 24 Hours as a sports-prototype before being converted to the subsequent Gp. IV GT homologation spec. It continued its racing career in America and has remained there ever since, but was a ‘no sale’ at Gooding’s Pebble Beach auction four years ago. Estimate €6.5m-€7.5m
