c.1961 OSCA 1600GT Coupé


20 Dec 2008 4 p.m. Geneva Motor Cars Auction 16671 – The history of chassis number ‘00103’ is unclear until the late 1970s when the car was for sale at Rudy Pas in Holland, at that time finished in Alfa Romeo purple livery. It later resurfaced in Connecticut, USA in the ownership of John Geils of the then famous J Geils Band. John restored the OSCA (he later owned a Ferrari restoration business) and painted it red. The car was later sold to the celebrated Swedish collector Hans Thulin, known for his Ferrari GTO and Bugatti Royale. Subsequently put on display in a Swedish museum, it was purchased in 2002 from the latter by the current owner, who advises us that the bumpers and ‘Fissore’ script have always been missing. Sold for CHF 75,400 inc. premium. More Info…..

    Thanks for sharing that great pic, but just for the record, that is a Berlinetta “Tour de France” (0901GT) he also owned in the 80′s.

    Which one, the Creem ‘Star Cars’ photo? I know I had a job trying to find out what car that was, not knowing anything about cars.

    Yes, the Creem photo, sorry! California Spider is an open car and the closed equivalent is called 250GT “Tour de France” Berlinetta. He seems to be a fan as he has owned several variations of the Ferrari 250 model series through the years.

    Thanks. I’ve corrected the title of that photo.
