What happens when you take a late-production 1967 Ferrari 330 GT 2+2, remove the roof, build a one-off removable hardtop and then spend more than $300,000 transforming, servicing and sorting the car? You end up with this. This is 1967 Ferrari 330 GT 2+2 s/n 9461, a late Series II example completed on January 16, 1967 and originally delivered through Luigi Chinetti Motors in Greenwich, Connecticut. Under the hood is Ferrari's 4.0-liter Colombo V12, producing approximately 300 horsepower through triple Weber 40DCZ/6 carburetors. As a late Series II car, it also has the desirable 5-speed manual transmission, power steering, air conditioning, power windows, four-wheel Girling disc brakes and the later hanging-pedal arrangement. But obviously, this is no longer a normal 330 GT 2+2. In 2024, s/n 9461 was sent to Newport Specialty Cars in Huntington Beach, California, where it underwent a full Spyder conversion. A completely unique removable hardtop was built at the same time. The convertible conversion cost $79,500. The custom hardtop added another $29,500. That was only the beginning. The car then received a custom 400 Superamerica-style hood scoop, a complete repaint and an extensive mechanical recommissioning by Red Car Restorations. From 2024 through 2026, more than $175,000 was spent going through the Ferrari mechanically. The work included an engine-out major service, complete transmission rebuild, carburetor and distributor rebuilding, cam timing and valve adjustment, steering and pedal-box rebuilding, extensive electrical work, power-window rebuilding, cooling and fuel-system work, a major A/C overhaul and extensive restoration and refinishing of the engine compartment. There are 128 pages of service and sales documentation with the car. The result is something Ferrari never offered from the factory: a four-seat, front-engine Colombo V12 330 GT that can be driven with the roof down, while retaining the character of one of Ferrari's great 1960s grand tourers. It also retains its original numbers-matching V12 engine. Period-correct Borrani wire wheels and Pirelli Cinturato tires complete the look, while the fully rebuilt 5-speed, power steering and broad torque of the 4.0-liter V12 make it a Ferrari designed to actually be driven. Purists will obviously have opinions about converting a 330 GT 2+2 into a Spyder. But that's also what makes this car interesting. It's not pretending to be a factory 330 GTS or something it isn't. It's a thoroughly documented 330 GT 2+2 Spyder conversion built to give its owner the experience of an open-top, Enzo-era V12 Ferrari at a very different price point from the factory-built Ferrari Spyders of the period. In this video, we take a closer look at the conversion, the details, the V12 drivetrain and what makes this one-off Ferrari such an unusual car.

The Ferrari 330 was a series of V12 powered automobiles produced by Ferrari in 2+2 GT Coupé, two-seat Berlinetta, spyder, and race car versions between 1963 and 1968. The name "330" refers to the approximate displacement of each single cylinder in cubic centimeters. The first, the 2+2 330 America, was a 250 GT/E with a larger 4.0-litre engine; the 330 GTC/GTS shared its chassis with the 275; the 330 GT 2+2 had its own chassis and bodywork; the mid-engined 330P racer was part of the Ferrari P ser...
