2005 Ferrari

A stunning recreation of Ferrari's World Sportscar Championship-winning 330 P4

Construction began with Foreman in 2003 and completion was in May 2005 with full SVA approval.

Mileage - 3,100 miles
Engine - Ferrari 4,823cc V12   
Carbs - 6 x Weber 38 DCOE
Gearbox - Getrag six-speed unit (as used currently by Porsche)
Clutch - Sachs competition clutch
Brakes - Cross-drilled, ventilated and designed to stop vehicles weighing far more than the Mk4's approx 1000 kilograms.
Fuel tank - Competition safety cell
Fire extinguishing system - Fully automated Safety Device with three separate outlets in the engine compartment.

All the components used were brand new at the time of the car's construction;
no reconditioned parts of any kind were used with the exception of the engine which is from a 1978 400GT which had covered circa 50,000 miles and came with a full service history
Completely rebuilt over a period of six months by Vincenzo Mezzulo who worked for 27 years at Maranello. Many improvements were made during the rebuild such as the original sodium-filled
exhaust valves were replaced as they had a poor reputation for reliability at higher revs.  All parts were purchased from Maranello.  
The engine has been very carefully run in since the rebuild's completion in 2005 and was fully serviced by Vincenzo Mezzulo in January 2006.

Attention to detail has been meticulous for example the velocity stack filters were hand made from the finest brass gauze,exactly matching the brass used by Weber
in the construction of the carburettors.

Maximum power is conservatively estimated at approx 350bhp, with the beneficial effect of the bespoke exhaust system hand crafted from stainless steel,
The four exit-pipes are painted with white Sperex as used by Ferrari originally on its P4 sports racers.

After the car was completed by Foreman in 2005, the bulkhead and roof were then removed, a modified roll bar fitted and various fabricated modifications carried out by The Wall Garage.
The car was then transported to Rob Wilson's premises where a tail from Max Wakefield's race-winning Mk4 was fitted and the conversion from berlinetta to spyder configuration completed.
Then, a Ferrari P4-style dashboard was fabricated, and riveted aluminium pontoons added. A period-correct steering wheel Momo Prototipo was sourced, and is fitted with a quick release.

The build cost of the car has been around £150,000

MoT'd to August 2012
Period registration - TFM 1F
Chassis no. NFMK4BFEP00304041

Currently prepared for road use it would make an excellent racer, potentially eligible for a variety of prestigious events and series.

Interesting part exchanges considered.
