1968 Ferrari 206 Dino GT in Miami , Florida

Vehicle Description

This amazingly rare 206 GT is only 1 of 152 ever made. The production Dino 206 GT was designed by Leonardo Fioravanti at Pininfarina[3] and built by Scaglietti.[4] It had the soft edges and curving lines typical of earlier Italian cars, unlike its angular successor, the Marcello Gandini designed 308 GT4, which had the straighter lines and sharp edges seen most boldly in Gandini's later Fiat X1/9. The 206 GT used a transverse-mounted 2.0 L all-aluminum, 160 hp (119 kW) at the 8,000 rpm redline, 65-degree V6 engine with dual overhead camshafts and a 9.7:1 compression ratio. Torque was 138 lbs/ft at 6,500 rpm. The crankshaft featured four main bearings. Induction was via three Weber 40 DCN/4 2-barrel carburetors. The 206 GT was the first car sold by Ferrari which used an electronic ignition, a Dinoplex C capacitive discharge ignition system that was developed by Magneti Marelli for the high revving Dino V6 engine (hence the name Dinoplex).[5] It was also the first Ferrari product to have a direct rack-and-pinion steering.[4] The 206 GT frame featured a light-weight, 1980 pound, aluminium body, full independent suspension, and all round disc brakes. The 206 GT had a 90.0-inch (2,290 mm) wheelbase. The 206 had a top speed of 146 mph (235 km/h). 152 were built in total during 1968 and 1969, in left hand drive only. This automobile has just had a full frame off restoration officially from Ferrari. ITs is ready for a new home here in the United States. The car is currently in Italy. - AM/FM, Full Leather Interior Surface - Contact Robert Scott at 786-558-1075 or robdscott@status-motors.com for more information. -
