However, only around 120 350 GTs were ever made and only 50 had a special aluminium body.
This car is one of those 50 and is up for sale in perfect condition.
After being sold to its first owner in Switzerland in 1965, it was taken to the US in 1974 by its second owner.
Between 2017 and 2019 it had a huge restoration to the tune of $90,000.
The 350 GT is a four-seater fitted with a 3.5-litre V12 engine with around 280hp.
It can sprint to 62mph from a standstill in 6.8 seconds and carry on to 158mph – staggering figures for 1964.
RM Sotheby’s is selling the 350 GT as part of its Paris auction on 1st February 2023.
