Jolly Automoveis / Gancia - Brasil - Ferrari line up

When doing some research I bumped into this unique photo with a 365GT4 2+2 humble in the background. It was posted by a relative of the Gancia family:

From this I learned that Jolly Automóveis was founded in 1966 and became the importer for Brazil of Alfa Romeo and then of Lamborghini and in 1970 of Ferrari.

Jolly Gancia (Racing team) mechanical knowhow and procedures was entrusted to Giuseppe Perego and Manolo Pazos Torres, here with a panoply of Ferraris imported by Jolly Automóveis. [click to enlarge] :



Not sure when and where this photo was taken.

Perhaps they sold at least a new 365GT4 2+2 to Alcides :
