1956 Ferrari 250 GT Boano (10)


Image by GS1311
Pinin Farina introduced a 250-based prototype at the 1956 Geneva Motor Show which came to be called the 250 GT Boano. Intended as a styling exercise and inspiration to 250 GT Europa customers, demand soon called for construction of a series of the car.

Unable to meet demand, Pinin Farina asked Mario Boano, formerly of Ghia, to handle the construction. When Fiat recruited Boano, he handed production duties of the Ferrari to his son-in-law Ezio Ellena. With partner Luciano Pollo, Carrozzeria Ellena would produce the Ferrari for another few years. Ellena revised the car, raising the roof and removing the vent windows from the doors.

Carrozzeria Boano built 74 250 GTs on the long wheelbase chassis.

All but one were coupes. The single convertible, 0461 GT, was sold to New York collector, Bob Lee, off the stand at the 1956 New York Auto Show. At the direction of Enzo Ferrari, Lee bought the car for ,500, far below cost. He still owns it, making it one of the oldest Ferraris still in the hands of the original purchaser.

Der Entwurf dieses ersten in höherem Maße komfortbetonten Ferrari-Modells stammte von Pinin Farina, der auch den Prototyp baute, die Fertigung fand aber aus Kapazitätsgründen bei der Carrozzeria Boano statt, später bei deren Nachfolgerin, der Carrozzeria Ellena. Boano produzierte etwa 80 Fahrzeuge, Ellena 50. Auch diese Versionen besaßen den Radstand von 2600 mm, aber eine gegenüber dem Europa GT geänderte Karosserie mit Stufenheck und Panorama-Heckscheibe und angedeuteten Heckflossen, dazu eine 176 kW(240 PS) starke Variante des Dreiliter. Insgesamt entstanden von diesem Modell 139 Exemplare.
