Do you know the Ferrari 250 GT Breadvan? This racing car was created in 1962 as an aerodynamic test laboratory for an unusual body shape. This body was designed by Giotto Bizzarrini and produced by Drogo. In the background sat Count Volpi with his racing team Scuderia Serenissima, who wanted to race this car against the Ferrari factory team with their 250 GTOs. He hadn’t received one from Enzo Ferrari due to previous disputes. So he wanted to take revenge at the 24 Hours of Le Mans. In fact, the unusual racing car was running promisingly in the race when a technical defect led to its retirement. Only a few more races followed before the Scuderia Serenissima switched to a 250 GTO after all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Modern homage for the Breadvan<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The 250 GT SWB with chassis number 2819GT was given the nickname ‘Breadvan’ only after the race, mainly through articles in British car magazines. Spectators at the 24 Hours of Le Mans called the car ‘Le Camionnette’ (little truck). Today, the Ferrari belongs to a collector who drives it regularly. But since there is only this one example, there is always more demand than supply in the market. Accordingly, there have been many conversions based on more modern Ferrari models in recent years. Niels van Roij, a designer with his own design studio in London, set about building a corresponding vehicle at the beginning of 2019. He chose a 550 Maranello as the basis.<\/p>\n\n\n
