Ferrari 166 MM

Ferrari 166 MM Barchetta, 1949
Chassis No. 0006M
Engine No. 0004M
Body No. 3243

The first of the Ferraris built as a dual-purpose sports/racing car, the 166 MM was named "Mille Miglia" in honor of the previous year's victory in that most prestigious event. The groundbreaking body design was nicknamed Barchetta, or Little Boat, by an Italian journalist when it was first shown at the 1948 Turin Motor Show. Typical of the time, Ferrari built only the chassis and running gear. The coachwork was designed and built by Carlo Felice "Cici" Anderloni's Carrozzeria Touring.
