The Concours of Elegance 2024 will showcase the 1962 Ferrari 250GT SWB Aerodinamico, a car that epitomizes the intersection of breathtaking design and high-performance engineering. This rare Ferrari model, one of only four ever produced, stands as a testament to Pininfarina’s design prowess and Ferrari’s engineering excellence.
The 250GT SWB Aerodinamico was custom-ordered by Ferdinando Gatta, a notable figure in the automotive world, and features a hand-crafted body by Pininfarina that pushes aerodynamic boundaries. The sleek, two-seater sports car boasts a 3.0L Colombo V12 engine that delivers an impressive top speed exceeding 170 mph, thanks to its advanced aerodynamic shape. This model’s design influence is also evident in the legendary Ferrari GTO.
Originally finished in a striking Grigio Marrone Italver paint, the car was later repainted in its original ‘Marrone’ metallic bronze during a recent comprehensive restoration. This Ferrari’s captivating aesthetics and refined performance make it a standout feature of this year’s concours, offering enthusiasts a rare chance to see one of Pininfarina’s most exclusive designs up close at Hampton Court Palace.
