Ferrai 250 GTO, The Autobiography of 4153 GT

By Keith Blummel

This magnificent book tells the story of a Ferrari 250 GTO with a particularly interesting and varied history. The car is chassis number 4153 GT and won the Tour de France in the hands of Lucien Bianchi and Georges Berger in 1964. The Tour de France was an arduous 10-day race-cum-rally. That success typifies the Ferrari 250 GTO competition life. Likewise the Ferrari 250 GTO did virtually every form of motorsport. This includes endurance racing, hill-climbing and rallying. All this is covered in fascinating detail. Above all the Ferrai 250 GTO, The Autobiography of 4153 GT book is supported by a fine collection of period photographs, including colour pictures. Any Ferrari enthusiast will enjoy this addition to his collection.
