This 1956 Ferrari 290 MM was specially built for the purpose of the Mille Miglia race event in Italy. In 1956, Juan Manuel Fangio drove the whole 1000 miles and he finished 4th! What`s characteristic about this automobile is the fact that it is still mostly original! The motor, transmission, chassis and body are all the same!
Furthermore, the 1956 Ferrari 290 MM has a 3.5 liter V12 motor that sets the car in motion. As you may see in the images, the nose of this vehicle has different color rather than the rest of the vehicle. It is painted in yellow and blue honoring Argentina, Fangio`s country of birth.
