Ferrari 312 P

In 1968, following a boycott of sports car racing due to a rule change, Ferrari introduced the 312 P, a 3000cc prototype closely resembling their 3-litre Formula 1 cars but with prototype bodies. The Ferrari 312P, available in both Barchetta (spyder) and Berlinetta versions, showed competitive performance in various races. At the 12 Hours of Sebring, the spyder variant secured second place, and it achieved fourth at the BOAC 500 at Brands Hatch. The 312P spyder took pole position at the 1000km Monza but retired early, and a 312P achieved second place at the 1000km Spa. Two 312P Berlinettas entered Le Mans but did not finish. After the season, the 312Ps were sold to NART, Ferrari's American importer. Only three 312 Ps were built: chassis 0868 (Spyder, later dismantled), 0870 (Berlinetta, in the Bardinon Collection), and 0872 (Berlinetta with an additional Spyder body, located in Switzerland).
