Ann from Cincinnati says:

I worked with Jim to buy a Porsche 911 Cabriolet; I’d been looking for a Cabriolet in great condition for about a year and contacted Jim. Working with him via text, email and phone was simple and streamlined plus he’s a very interesting guy who is genuinely passionate about cars and about a straight forward sales process. I’d never purchased a car sight-unseen from an out of state seller — so I had some reservations, however Jim said all the right things, produced all the right support and responded quickly. The entire process took less time than I originally thought it might and the car exceeded my expectations. Thank you again, Ann (Cincinnati, Ohio)

Hey Jim, I got the ’70 SS 454 yesterday.  It made the trip on the transporter just perfect.  It has been raining so I haven’t been able to get it out to drive yet, but hopefully tomorrow.  It is a beautiful car and some of my neighbors and friends can’t quit talking about it.  Thanks for your hospitality when I flew down to look at the car.  I am glad it was like you said and I think we both ended up pleased.  I definitely will refer you if any of my friends are looking for a classic car.  Thanks again.  JS, MA

Sheryl from Birmingham says:

Jim did an absolutely fabulous job from start to selling of my husbands car. He took, what was a very stressful situation for me, and made it very easy. He handled every detail as if he knew my husband personally. I highly recommend his services for selling your prized vehicles.(Sheryl, Birmingham, AL)

Hello Mr. Lowrey:  I wanted to tell you the ’77 Corvette made it home safely.  I know you were a little concerned about driving it this far, but I had no problems at all.  It turned heads all the way home.  My buddies are “jealous”.  Thank you again for being honest about the car and I know I will enjoy it for a long time.  RT, MS

Description
1973 Ferrari 365 GTB/4 Daytona Berlinetta Black/Black with Matching Numbers

This 1973 Ferrari 365 GTB/4 Daytona Berlinetta was completed on September 20, 1973, and left the factory in a striking Nero (Black) 20-B-50 paint with a Nero leather interior, accented by red seat inserts. Out of long-term family ownership since the early 1980s, a highly original example boasting plenty of lovely patina. A matching numbers example documented by Ferrari historian Marcel Massini. Offered with factory books and tools. The paint is showing its age at this point with some checking and flaws. Mechanically refreshed and ideal for sympathetic refurbishment.

Chassis 16865 is a US delivered car featuring air conditioning, power windows, and Cromodora alloy wheels. It was initially delivered to Bill Harrah's Modern Classic Motors in Reno, Nevada, and subsequently sold through Ron Tonkin Gran Turismo in Portland, Oregon, on December 24, 1973.

Provenance:
The car's provenance includes ownership by Ron Kinard Farris of Carson, California, and later, Dr. Herve Gentile, a noted Ferrari collector from Port Aransas, Texas. Under Dr. Gentile's stewardship, the Daytona was sparingly driven and meticulously maintained, preserving its original charm and patina.

Recent Service:
In March 2025, the Daytona underwent a comprehensive service by Exclusive Motorcars of Arizona, ensuring it is in prime condition for its next owner. The service included rebuilding and tuning the Weber carburetors, refurbishing the fuel system, and installing a new battery. The car was road-tested and confirmed to be a fine driving example, exuding the authenticity and character that only an unrestored classic can offer.

Documentation:
Accompanying the sale is a Massini report, Ferrari Heritage Certificate, a tool roll with a jack, and recent service records.

This 1973 Ferrari 365 GTB/4 Daytona Berlinetta is not just a car; it's a piece of automotive art and history. Its combination of design, performance, and provenance makes it a standout in the exotic car class. This iconic vehicle is a testament to Ferrari's engineering prowess and design excellence. A rare find in today's market, especially in such well-preserved condition. Whether you're looking to participate in prestigious events or simply wish to own a legendary Ferrari, chassis 16865 deserves your attention. Unrestored Daytonas are becoming increasingly rare, and this example presents a unique opportunity for collectors and enthusiasts alike.
