A shape that fits perfectly at the wall.


The door looks like this.


It is quite strange is known is that when viewed from this angle, "Ferrari in the house".

This Ferrari, which was assembled at the manufacturing factory in October 1959 and was completed in December. One male bought it from the first owner on July 29, 1975 and enjoyed driving for eight years, but at a certain time it changed policy to "keep it in the house without putting it out" It seems. And for the next 30 years, Ferrari was kept hidden away from the eyes other than the family living in the apartment.

A second-generation owner's lawyer advised that a man's family asked the story "There is a car in the apartment for 30 years without being driven," but sometimes the man does not want to talk For many years, I did not know what kind of car I have. However, a lawyer who knew that "Ferrari 250 GT Pininfarina Coupe" is kept in the apartment for the first time when a man retires and moves to the stage, "I could not believe what I was seeing" is. Then I told men, "Please contact me if you plan to sell", I bought this Ferrari from men soon.

However, the lawyer suffers from how to put the purchased car out.

In the first place Ferrari was placed in a room of an apartment completely closed. Actually, the second generation owner's man seems to have modified the carpet so that it can be opened as if it were a door, and then rolled the car with the tilted platform. In the room all the materials on Ferrari were saved in the file, and a page called "Open a hole in the wall" was sandwiched among them in the file, so it is seen that the man got inspiration from here.

This is the wall.


After the second generation owner put the car in the room, I removed the engine, the transmission, the tire and attached the jack stand with a wire to the car as an earthquake countermeasure. When the lawyer showed me the car, the engine was restored perfectly, the tires were polished up and plated with chrome. However, there was no gasoline put in after the restore, according to the document, it seems that the car was kept in the state of no touch, finally purchasing the transmission in 1990.

It looks like it is seen from the outside of the door.


The removed tire is standing against the wall.


Ferrari logo in the picture frame in the room.


An engine put out of the car.


The engine is completely disappeared from the engine room.


Originally Ferrari exterior was white and the interior was red, but when the lawyer got it, the exterior was changed to silver and the interior was changed to black. The number seems to remain original.


Since the second generation owner locked the Ferrari in the apartment and then fixed the wall as originally, the lawyer who purchased Ferrari had to hire a soil contractor and cut the wall again. Fortunately I succeeded in opening the wall like a door like the beginning. The tire which had been detached was set again in the car, and it was said that she pushed out with five people using the same inclination as when putting the car in the apartment. It took about 5 hours to get the car out. After that, the car was put out as a mechanic, and it is now being restored by adding missing parts.
