Ferrari 250 P
The Ferrari 250 P was a works sports prototype. Review the documented 1963 programme and the evidence that distinguishes a chassis from its later configuration.
What to check before buying
Match competition appearances to the individual chassis and the specification used at the time. Request records for later engine, body, and designation changes.
A race result recorded under a later designation needs an entry list, photograph, or other contemporary record tying it to the same 250 P chassis.
