For sale: Ferrari 365GT4 2+2 Verde Seabird RHD by Crepaldi

This one caught my eye due to it's color:

But also the fact it's a RHD car with an old German country decal (D - Deutschland) on the back.
And upon reading the supporting sales information I read the following paragraph:

Our car was delivered new to Crepaldi, the Ferrari agent in Milan, in July 1975. Evidence points to it then being sold to a wealthy Italian family living in Monaco: the owner having a preference for right-hand drive cars (the family also owned a right-hand drive Ferrari 412).

And I only recalled one 412 RHD in Italy, so likely this car was owned by the same family:

At the time of the photo, it was still with the first owner, Carlo Graziano SpA. of Turin, manufacturer of gearboxes (now Oerlikon).
