Gioacchino Colombo designed this engine in 1946 for Enzo Ferrari. It was a 60-degree V12 with a single overhead cam per bank, two valves per cylinder, and three Weber carburettors. It first ran on 12 March 1947, on the road between Maranello and Formigine, in a car that had no body. Two months later, the Ferrari 125 S raced for the first time. Every Ferrari that followed began here. By 1948, the engine had grown to 1,995 cc in the Ferrari 166 MM — named for the Mille Miglia it was built to win. In 1949, the 166 MM won the Mille Miglia, the 24 Hours of Le Mans, and the Spa 24 Hours in the same season. The Colombo V12 would remain in production for over 40 years, powering the 250 GTO, the Daytona, and every iconic Ferrari that built the legend. A study in the mechanical heart of the Maranello legend. Limited edition fine art photograph. Signed and numbered. Printed on museum-grade paper. Made in Italy.
