Original Ferrari V12 (K Bluemel)

Original Ferrari V12 1965-1973 is devoted to the cars that represent, to most enthusiasts, the image of a true Ferrari. Two jewels in Ferrari history — 275 GTB and 365 GTB/4 Daytona — form the core of this book. Both have breathtaking style, charisma and performance; the Daytona stands out, in particular, as a legend. This fabulous supercar, powered by the famous V12 engine in 4.4-litre 325bhp four-cam form, was capable of 170mph and 0-60mph in 5.9 seconds — incredible for 1968. Many other V12 road cars date from this 1965-1973 era, which was prolific for Ferrari. The book begins with a look at two cars, 500 Superfast and 365 California, that represent the `last of the leviathans': the big-engined, luxurious, bespoke machines built in tiny numbers for Ferrari's wealthiest customers. Chapters then move through three engine sizes: 275, 330 and 365, which follow Ferrari's old tradition of titling a car according to the cubic capacity of a single cylinder. As well as the fantastic 275 GTB, there was a 275 GTS with totally different styling and softer character. The 330 models embrace GT 2+2, GTC and GTS, while 365 models — in addition to the Daytona —are GTC, GTS, GTC/4 and GT4 2+2. There is also coverage of competition derivatives.
