To Be OFFERED AT AUCTION at RM Sothebys' Paris event, 4 - 5 February 2025.
- Offered from nearly 40 years of single ownership
- Retains its matching-numbers engine
- Benefits from well-maintained 1980s restoration
- Delivered new through the famed Charles Pozzi SA of Paris
- Documented with SEFAC delivery sheet copy, prior owner’s registration, restoration and parts invoices, test certificate, and history report by Marcel Massini
- A beautifully maintained example of the legendary Dino
According to marque expert Marcel Massini, chassis number 03266 was specified for the French market with yellow headlamps, and instruments in kilometres. Finished in Azzurro Metallizzato paint over an interior trimmed in Blu leather, the Dino was completed in January 1972 and distributed to Charles Pozzi SA, the official marque importer in Paris.
Initially purchased by a French woman, the Dino was sold later that year to a second woman living in Paris who retained possession for 13 years. In 1986 the 246 GT was acquired by the consignor, and they soon commissioned Etablissements Tessier to perform a restoration, with correct parts sourced directly from Charles Pozzi SA, and a cosmetic refinish in the current livery of Rosso over black leather. Some years later, in February 2001, the engine was rebuilt by SOPRAD of Saint-Ouen-L’Aumone.
Now offered from nearly 40 years of single-owner care, and claiming just two owners from its earliest days, this 246 GT presents beautifully, having been completely detailed for the current offering, and it may be enjoyed as is or considered for further restorative attention. Such a minimally used and well-maintained example of the celebrated Dino would make a handsome addition to any sporting collection.
