Why it matters

History
Ferrari built the 330 TRI/LM for the 1962 season, when the sports-racing rules moved to a four-litre Experimental class. The auction catalogue says the frame was new, from Vaccari invoices, and not the 250 TRI60/61 frame long thought to be its basis. The 2016 copy of the same text says the car began life as chassis 0780, so the two sources conflict.
At the 1962 Le Mans test day Willy Mairesse set the fastest lap at 4 minutes 10.8 seconds. Hill and Gendebien then won the race overall, the team's third Le Mans win.
