www.QV500.com - Ferrari 375 America Part 2: Chassis Index

There are generally considered to have been ten scratch built Ferrari 375 America's made between autumn 1953 and late spring of 1954. Additionally, there are a few vehicles that can also quite rightly claim to be genuine 375 America's following full factory upgrades. An asterisk (*) denotes 250 Europa's upgraded mechanically at least by Ferrari to the much more powerful 375 America specification.
