43 FEATURE:
• Beauty Is Its Own Reward…
• In this issue we present a pristine example of a 250 GT LWB Tour de France, s/n 0903 GT.
• It raced only once and did not finish. And it spent most of its life in boxes. Is there any worth to this seemingly orphaned TdF?
• Indeed there is, because it is a true example of all that was good about the 250 GT LWB TdF – speed, power, versatility, and an inherent beauty of form.
• Its quiet life recounted by Historian Alan Boe. Salon images by Jerry Wyszatycki.
54 FEATURE:
• Enzo Ferrari’s Signature…

• A history of the mark and its slow evolution into myth, with rare color samples, by Historian Nathan Beehl.
