330

1963-1968

In 1963, the Ferrari 330 America was launched. Visually, the 330 America was almost identical to the Series III 250 GT/E, but is was fitted with a bigger, 3,967 cc V12 engine. 50 units were built in late 1963 before being replaced by the larger 330 GT 2+2 in January 1964. It was much more than a re-engined 250, with a sharper nose and tail, four headlights and a wide grille. The 1965 Series II version featured a five-speed gearbox instead of the overdrive four-speed of the prior year. Other changes included the switch back to a dual-light front, alloy wheels and the addition of optional air conditioning and power steering. 

 

At the March 1966 Geneva Motor Show, the 330 GTC berlinetta was introduced. It was a two-seater coupé with a Pininfarina-designed body. At the Mondial de l'Automobile in Paris later that year, the GTS spider followed, with the same chassis and drivetrain as the GTC. Both models were more like their 275 counterparts than the 330 GT 2+2. They shared the short wheelbase of the 275 as well as its independent rear suspension and the same tyres. About 600 coupés and 100 spiders were produced before the 1968 introduction of the 365 GTC and GTS.
