If you are reading this, I probably don't need to explain homologation. In 1962, Ferrari got officials to approve his 250 GTO for LeMans despite having only built 39 of the 100 required; allegedly he fiddled with the serial numbering.<br /> <br /> When he applied late for homologation on this rear-engined 250 LM for 1965, Ford and Carrol Shelby had raised enough hell that Enzo was turned down and would have had to race his 250s in prototype against his much more powerful 365 series. (Ferrari model numbers are the displacement of one cylinder in cubic centimeters.)<br /> <br /> Ferrari declined to enter. But our late neighbor Luigi Chinetti and NART did.<br /> <br /> Feeling they had no chance drivers Gregory and Rindt decided to drive it like they stole it until something broke. Other entrants broke, including the fledgling Ford GT-40s. Gregory and Rindt won 1965 LeMans in this car.<br /> <br /> 1965 Ferrari<br /> 250 LM Berlinetta GT<br /> Serial No. 6217<br /> Twelve-cylinder 60-degree vee engine, single overhead camshaft; 3286 cc, 320 hp at 7500 rpm
