About the Ferrari 250GTO – 3445GT…  “3445GT was completed on April 30th, 1962. It was first raced by Sergio Bettoja in the Parma-Poggio Hillclimb achieving a 3rd in class. It was then owned by Count Giovanni Volpi di Misurata and started in Le Mans (DNF) with Nino Vacarella and Giorgio Scarlatti. Carlo Maria Abate won the Trophée Auvergne in Charade. The GTO had an accident in the Tour de France, finished 22nd OA in the 1000km Montlhery race and 5th OA in the 12 hour Sebring race.

In 1963, the 3445GT was purchased by Ulf Norinder, who changed its livery from the original red to blue and yellow colours of Sweden to comply with the racing regulations of the day. Norinder drove the GTO to victory in the Vastkustloppet in his home nation. The car also finished second in class twice in the Targa Florio in 1963 and 1964, driven by Bordeu/Scarlatti and Norinder/Pico Troiberg respectively. Whilst racing in 1964, the car’s number was designated 112, the number which it still bears today.”
