In the early sixties it was bought by Christopher Kerrison, a wealthy racedriver who raced AND crashed it. In stead of then bringing the car back to original spec, he decided to bring the car to Drogo and had a 'special' body made. So it's nicknamed the 'Kerrison' Ferrari. In 1980 it was restored to the other chassis #3611GT.

That's what I remember out of my head about this car, I recognised the glas 'bubble' on the hood ...
