What a pitty to see the car in this condition, especially with the missing interior. Adding it here for the records.

THE PALMEN BARNFIND COLLECTION BY GALLERY AALDERING - AUCTIONED BY CLASSIC CAR AUCTIONS

— View the entire auction on www.classiccar-auctions.com —

The Ferrari 400i is a Gran Turismo car produced by the Italian car brand Ferrari between 1976 and 1989. It was one of the first Ferrari models to feature an automatic transmission, and was also one of the first Ferraris to feature a V12 engine with fuel injection. The Ferrari 400i automatic transmission is a special version of the Ferrari 400i where the car is equipped with an automatic transmission instead of a manual transmission. It was one of the first Ferrari models to be equipped with an automatic transmission, which made driving in this sports car more comfortable. The 400i had a 4.8-liter V12 engine with a capacity of approximately 315 hp and a torque of 400 Nm. The car had a top speed of about 240 km/h and could accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in about 7 seconds. The design of the car was based on the Pininfarina styling and the interior was luxurious. The Ferrari 400i was a popular choice among collectors and classic car enthusiasts because of its rarity and exclusivity. During its 13 years of production, a total of 883 units were produced with manual transmission. This special version of the Ferrari 400i is produced by the coachbuilder Pavesi. Unfortunately the interior is not present.

The cars on offer are part of a static collection that has been accumulated over the last 40 years. They are mainly in an unrestored, original but dusty condition. We have not tried to start any of the cars. We have been informed that the engines have been turned, on a regular basis, but the exact condition of the cars and the engines is unknown to us.
