Ferrari Cavallino Magazine #260 – April / May 2024
-Main feature and cover car:
The 1996 Ferrari F355 GTS “art car” by Ton Pret, s/n 105343 A classic car or work of art? This 355, an example of what is probably the best-loved Ferrari youngtimer model, can certainly be considered a work of art after being used as a canvas by renowned modern artist Ton Pret. He was invited to paint the entire car when it was just a few years old. Today, more than 20 years later, Cavallino drove it to downtown Manhattan for a special photo shoot. As somebody wrote, you can hang an art car on a wall, but you can’t drive a painting on the road… This feature includes a full interview with Ton Pret, who provided some interesting behind- the-scenes glimpses into the making of this work of art.
-Main feature 1965 Ferrari 275 GTS s/n 07513
One of the most beautiful and iconic Ferrari Spiders ever manufactured, this car has an interesting history as it was owned, in the 1970s, by Italian soccer superstar Gigi Riva. Now in the ownership of the affluent Ricci family of Florence, it has been restored applying the kind of approach usually reserved for works of art.
-Extra, the Style Guru
“Style guru” Stephan Bayley writes about art cars and their importance in two worlds: art and car collecting. He tries to answer one of the most debated questions: is a classic Ferrari in itself a work of art, or does it need to be used as canvas in order to become one?
