Conceived and built to replace the four-seat 365 GT 2+2 and 365 GTC at one stroke, Ferrari?s 365 GTC/4 debuted at Geneva in 1971. A somewhat roomier Grand Touring companion to the 365 GTB/4 "Daytona", the 365 GTC/4 featured sleek bodywork, styled by Leonardo Fioravanti and built by Pininfarina. Rated at 340 horsepower, the 4.4-liter V-12 engine of the 365 GTC/4 was shared with the "Daytona," but equipped with different cylinder heads, wet-sump lubrication, slightly lower compression, and six side-draft Weber carburetors. Despite its Grand Touring purpose in contrast to the harder-edged "Daytona," the 365 GTC/4 offered outstanding performance closely approaching its vaunted stablemate, with 0-60 acceleration in the 6-second range and a top speed over 150 mph. Topping the Ferrari road-car line when new, the 365 GTC/4 was priced slightly higher than the "Daytona" and very popular with Ferrari buyers.
Numbered 14967 and listed in Hilary A. Raab's "
Ferrari Serial Numbers Part 1," this Ferrari 365 GTC/4 is 1 of as few as 500 produced 1971-72, according to production data compiled by Ferrari historian Marcel Massini. It was shipped new to the United States and sold here via Le Mans champion Luigi Chinetti's official East coast Ferrari distributorship. From the final year of the brief production run, this 1972 Ferrari 365 GTC/4 is offered with the odometer reading 33,475 miles at the time of writing. Features and options include air conditioning, power windows, power steering, and Cromodora wheels mounting new period style Michelin XWX radial tires.
Finished in Ferrari's signature Rosso Corsa over Tan leather, 14967 clearly benefits from attentive care and garage storage when not in use. Accompanied by owner history, the provenance of 14967 includes the ownership of Thomas E. Coundit, the late attorney and noted car collector from Sarasota, Florida. The Ferrari has numerous awards to its credit, including back-to-back First in Class honors at the Palm Beach Cavallino Classic Concorso d'Eleganza in 1999 and 2000, followed by the FCA (Ferrari Club of America) Platinum Award at St. Armand's Circle, Florida, in 2002, Second in Class at the 2002 Cavallino Classic Concorso d'Eleganza XI in Palm Beach, and First Place at the FCA National Winter Meet in Lakeland, Florida. Most recently 14967 earned the Ferrari Owner's Club Class B Award in 2013.
