From the listing for this Old Ferrari Racing Car:

One of just 34 250 GT Europas built, this particular car was entered for a number of period events by Ferrari’s most famous concessionaire, Ecurie Francorchamps, driven on each occasion by Olivier Gendebien, who eventually went on to own the car.

Its first outing was in March 1955 in the Cote de la Roche, but it was in the following year that it really made its mark when it came third in the 1956 Liege Rome Liege Rally driven by Olivier Gendebien and Pierre Stasse. Not only was this a remarkable achievement for an unmodified road car – in what is still considered one of the most gruelling rallies of all time.
