Starting in 1959, a total of 166 250 GT Berlinettas were built, of which 92 were road-going, steel-bodied cars and 74 aluminum ‘Competizione’ versions.
All the cars on display have undergone the Ferrari Classiche Authenticity Certification process, which sees them undergo a thorough check to ensure that everything, from the bodywork to the chassis, is true to the original designs. The department was set up in 2006 to provide owners of classic, veteran and historic Ferraris with dedicated maintenance, repair and restoration services, technical assistance and authenticity certification, and so far more than 1,000 cars have undergone the process.
Incidentally, Ferrari is also celebrating the 25th anniversary of the 288 GTO this year, with private enthusiast Joe Sackey organizing a gathering of the cars for the Monterey Historics & Pebble Beach Concours D'Elegance in California this August.
