We are pleased to offer 1953 Ferrari 212 Inter Pinin Farina Coupe s/n 0279 EU. This elegant early Ferrari is one of only four left hand drive Pinin Farina 212s. 0279 EU had a complete ground–up restoration in the early 1990s, at which time it had a mere 11,000 km on the clock, and had been with the same owner in California for over 25 years. Restored by Tom Valereo and Nino Epifani. Matching numbers engine fitted from the factory with triple Weber carburetors. Finished in Ferrari red exterior with a full cream leather interior and dark brown carpets. Very little use since the restoration, other than one run in the Colorado Grand. A very user–friendly early Ferrari thanks to left hand drive, windshield wipers, a Factory–fitted heater and small rear jump seats if you want to take a third person or your young kids along!

Eligible for almost any event on the planet from the Colorado Grand to the Mille Miglia from the Ferrari–Maserati Challenge to the Monterey Historics and more. An elegant example of early 1950s Ferrari custom coachwork.

A complete ground–up restoration done in the early 1990s and little use since. Red exterior with cream leather.
