Description of the original vehicle: This 250 LM was sold along with several others to the Swiss privateer and his Scuderia Filipinetti. The vehicle made its first appearance at the 1000km race in Monthléry in 1964. In 1965 it finished sixth overall at Le Mans and won its class at the Swiss championship in Monza. The car was later sold to Pierre de Siebenthal and then made its way to the UK where it became part of the collections of Anthony Bamford, Don Nelson and Martin Hilton. The former Scuderia Filipinetti 250 LM was added to a Middle Eastern collection in 2010 and then completely restored by Ferrari.

Dieter Spoerry was one of the most successful Swiss racing drivers in the 1960s. He and his co-driver Armand Boller competed in the 24 Hours of Le Mans in June 1965 with chassis 6119 for Scuderia Filipinetti. There were four other Ferrari 250 LMs in the starting field. Spoerry/Boller achieved 25th place in qualifying and took sixth place overall in the race with starting number 27.
