Buying or Selling a 1973 Ferrari 365 BB?

 

The “BB” accompanying the Ferrari 365 moniker stands for Berlinetta Boxer, which you most likely already know as the owner of a 1973 Ferrari 365 BB. What makes the BB special is that the car boasts a flat-12 mid-mounted engine, seen for the first time on a Ferrari. Initially, Enzo Ferrari was against the idea but finally gave in and the result was quite successful. Thanks to the 360 hp, 4.4L SOHC V12 engine and a precise five-speed manual transmission system, the 1973 Ferrari 365 BB’s top speed of 186 mph was a record for road cars at the time and the car’s initial acceleration of 0 to 60 mph in 5.4 seconds is still impressive nowadays. The 365 BB was produced from 1973 to 1976 and only 387 examples were made. Those facts are only a few ideas that you should present to potential buyers if you’re considering selling your 1973 Ferrari 365 BB. The Alex Manos team, with years of experience in the classic car market, would be more than happy to hear all about your example and help you more.

 

1973 Ferrari 365 BB Seller’s Guide

Although the 1974 Ferrari 365 BB is a rare and desirable classic, the selling process won’t necessarily be easy. In order to help the process, the Alex Manos team recommends the following seller’s tips. First, be sure to gather all important documentation you have on the classic – whether a restoration model or pristine example. This will give buyers access to all the information they need to understand the history of the classic – from ownership records to maintenance and repair, if available. Furthermore, because many of your potential buyers will come from the Internet, be sure to have recent photographs of the classic. If your classic is an unfinished restoration, be sure to also include a list of any parts or components that will be included in the sale. Finally, you should always be prepared to help authenticate your classic Ferrari as an original, which can be achieved via a Certificate of Authenticity or with photos of engine and chassis numbers. These are just a few of the many tips the Alex Manos team recommends when selling a classic of any age or condition.
