Inside the incredible £1.5million classic Ferrari abandoned in a barn for 40 years – it’s the only one left on earth
A CLASSIC Ferrari that was left abandoned in a barn for 40 years has gone on show to the public.
The 1969 Ferrari 365 GTB/4 Daytona Berlinetta saw daylight again back in 2017, going on to sell at auction with RM Sotheby's for £1.5million
Until somebody stumbled across it in a Japanese barn, that is.
What is considered one of history's best barn finds has now gone on show to the public in Italy.
Musei Ferrari in Modena posted pictures of the Daytona on its Facebook page still covered in barn dust.
The car is awaiting a complete restoration by Ferrari itself, but the Italian firm thought people would like to see this stunning find beforehand.
The rare Daytona was built in June 1969 with chassis no. 12653 and wearing body no. 32.
Unlike most Daytonas, it's fitted with desirable Plexiglas headlights and electric windows.
