After dismantling and stripping it, it turns out it was actually a P3 Ferrari driven in races in 1966 and then converted to P4 specs for the 1967 season and raced by Chris Amon and badly burned at LeMans in 1967. So, it was the only Ferrari P3/4 ever made.

The proper way to appear in public. The old V-12s with the 6 dual throat 
Webers on top were a sight to see.  (And, if you recall, sometimes 
covered with a reverse hood scoop made of clear plexiglass (or somesuch) 
so you could see them with the hood closed.
