This 1966 Ferrari underwent a three-year restoration by Bell Sport & Classic, before earning a class win at the 2022 Salon Privé Concours d'Elégance.
Both versions of 330 are powered by a four-liter, V12 engine designed by Gioacchino Colombo and producing 300 horsepower at 7,000 rpm. Also appearing in members of the revered Ferrari 250 family, it is a masterpiece of a power unit; tractable and torquey at low speeds, with a willingness to rev and rev all the way to the limiter, while producing one of the greatest automotive soundtracks of all time.
Two points that demonstrate just how much effort Bell Sport & Classic put into this restoration concern the black paint applied to the inside of the wheel arches and engine bay, and the color of the fuel tank. Of the former, Matt Wilton, who oversaw the restoration project, said: “It took three attempts before we were certain we got exactly the correct and original degree of shine and tonality.
The exact weave of the floor mats was also carefully recreated, and today the car is provided with a pair of every-day mats happy to soak up some dirt, while those made to match the originals are stowed in the trunk, ready to impress concours judges at a moment’s notice. The steering is nicely weighted, with some of the initial slack that is commonplace in cars of this era, but starts to communicate clearly when a few degrees of lock is applied. It only takes a couple of minutes to get used to, and paired with the lightness and compact dimensions compared to modern performance cars, the 330 GTC is easy to place on the road.
