Introduced back in 1959 at the Paris Salon, the Ferrari 250 GT SWB Berlinetta - or "passo corto" - Scaglietti was designed by noted Italian coachbuilder Pininfarina. Built on a 2,400 mm chassis, the 250 GT Berlinetta passo corto became the successor of the Ferrari 250 GT Tour de France, and was noted for being a trailblazer when it comes to the Prancing Horse’s rich and esteemed history.
This particular model was the very first Ferrari production road car to be fitted with disc brakes as standard and, unlike the preceding 250 GT Berlinetta series, also became the first Ferrari to be made available in either left- or right-hand drive.
As recently as two years ago, a Ferrari 250 GT Berlinetta passo corto was recently auction at the RM Auctions for $1.45 million.
