In 1969 the Ferrari 250 LM would be sold to Richard Merritt one of the founders of the Ferrari Club of America. At that time it would change ownership on several occasions, although it was always staying in the United States. It was restored and brought to an enviable state of preservation and in 1990 it was bought by the Mitsubishi Corporation and taken to Japan. I would soon have it shiroh kosakawho was the owner who pampered the vehicle the most, keeping it for almost a quarter of a century with the best care.
In 2018 it changed garages and its new owner carried out a complete restoration by Ferrari Classiche. It is fully documented, like the rest of the vehicle’s experiences. That adds to the value of this Ferrari 250 LM, which is believed to be one of the few to never have been in a significant accident, and retains its matching numbers chassis and bodywork. On August 19 we will see if it is properly auctioned and reaches that millionaire value that is expected of it.
