Ferrari 410 Super Fast

Vehicle Overview

The Ferrari 410 Super Fast, chassis 0483SA, is a one-of-a-kind Pininfarina Speciale, built in 1956 as an experimental grand tourer. It was fitted with a 24-plug racing engine, making it one of the most powerful road-going Ferraris of its time. The car featured tail fins, a futuristic design element that set it apart from other Ferrari models. Built on chassis type #514, with engine type 126/C, it had a 2,600mm wheelbase and was originally finished in white with a black and red interior (initially all black). Pininfarina assigned it job number 15254. The car debuted at the 43rd Paris Salon in October 1956, serving as Ferrari’s showpiece for the event. Shortly after, it was sold to William Doheny of Los Angeles, California. Over the following decades, it passed through the hands of several notable American collectors, including Hollywood actor Jackie Cooper, John Delameter of Indianapolis, and Ferrari historian Richard F. Merritt of Bethesda, Maryland, who offered it for sale in 1966. In 1977, the car was owned by Ferrari of San Diego before being acquired by David Rose of La Jolla, California later that year. In 1978, it moved to Don Dethlefsen of Highland Park, Illinois, where it was registered under the plate “DD 701.” By 1979, it was in the possession of Peter Fino in Chicago and then sold in 1980 to Peter J. Agg in the UK, who listed it for £43,000 with the registration “MJK 369.” In 1984, the Ferrari returned to the U.S., becoming part of the collection of Peter G. Sachs in Stamford, Connecticut, before being acquired in 1991 by Greg Garrison in Thousand Oaks, California. Under Garrison’s ownership, the car became a regular feature at prestigious concours events. It was displayed at Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance in 1991, participated in Ferrari at 50 at the Petersen Museum in 1997, won a class award at the Rodeo Drive Concours, and again appeared at Pebble Beach in 2001. In 2004, the car changed hands again, becoming part of the renowned collection of Robert M. Lee in Sparks, Nevada. Under Lee’s ownership, it was displayed at The Quail – A Motorsports Gathering in 2004 and took part in Ferrari’s 75th-anniversary celebration at Pebble Beach in 2005. After Robert Lee’s passing, his wife, Anne Brockington Lee, continued to show the car at major concours events. The Ferrari 410 Super Fast won Best of Class at the Amelia Island Concours in 2014, participated in Pebble Beach Tour d’Elegance in 2021, and competed in the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance that same year. In January 2023, it won Best of Show Granturismo and Overall Outstanding Ferrari Granturismo at the Cavallino Classic. Most recently, in March 2025, it was exhibited at Moda Miami, continuing its legacy as one of Ferrari’s most unique and celebrated one-off creations.
