01 / THE STORY

History & context

The Ferrari 410 Boano Cabriolet stands as a timeless masterpiece, embodying the pinnacle of automotive luxury and performance. Introduced to the world by Carrozzeria Boano at the prestigious Turin Motor Show in 1956, this extraordinary vehicle immediately captured the imagination of enthusiasts and connoisseurs alike. Crafted as a bespoke creation, the 410 Boano Cabriolet is a singular exemplar of automotive artistry. With chassis number 0485SA, it bears an illustrious heritage, echoing the iconic design of the inaugural Ferrari body that Boano fashioned upon the esteemed 250 GT chassis. Its unveiling marked a moment of unparalleled elegance and sophistication in automotive history. Originally commissioned alongside its counterpart, the 410 Superamerica Boano Coupe, the Cabriolet found its first home in the possession of Giorgio Sisini Sorso, the esteemed Count of Sant’Andrea in Milan. Subsequently passing into the hands of Roberto Crepaldi, it embarked on a journey across continents, eventually finding residence with Bill Jacobs in the vibrant city of Chicago in 1985. In a remarkable twist of fate, the Ferrari 410 Boano Cabriolet was reunited with its sibling, the 410 Superamerica Boano Coupe, in 1985, under the ownership of Robert M. Lee. This reunion marked a poignant moment in automotive history, as two extraordinary specimens of Ferrari’s legacy came together in perfect harmony. The culmination of this narrative unfolded in 1987 when the complete Ferrari Boano Trio, comprising the Cabriolet and its two counterparts, graced the stage of the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance, captivating enthusiasts with their timeless allure. This reunion of automotive royalty was a testament to the enduring legacy of Ferrari craftsmanship. Decades later, in 2017, the Ferrari Boano Trio once again commanded attention at Pebble Beach, reaffirming their status as enduring icons of automotive excellence. With every curve and contour, the Ferrari 410 Boano Cabriolet continues to captivate hearts and minds, leaving an indelible mark on the annals of automotive history.
