Anteprima Ferrari 815 – Signed Copy

Product description

The 815 represents the first car built by Enzo Ferrari, even before his name could officially appear on a car. Called 815 for its 8-cylinder engine of one and a half liters, this car was produced in only two examples and officially presented on April 28, 1940 on the occasion of the 1st Brescia Grand Prix of the Mille Miglia.

This book comprehensively tells the story of the 815, combining documentary rigor and visual richness. Through period photographs, reproductions of documents, letters and archival material, the volume reconstructs the genesis of the car, the historical context and the events related to the first steps of the Ferrari brand. It not only describes the car’s technical and mechanical characteristics, but also offers an in-depth look at the figure of Enzo Ferrari, his approach to design and the birth of a motoring legend.

An essential book for collectors, automotive history and motorsport enthusiasts, it provides a detailed and vivid portrait of one of the rarest and most significant cars in Ferrari’s history, offering a unique perspective on the first chapter of its motoring epic.
