YAZTEC AUTOMOTIVE IS PROUD TO OFFER THIS RARE 1979 FERRARI 400A IN AMZING CONDITION FOR SALE. IT STARTS. RUNS. AND DRIVES GREAT. THE BODY AND UNDER-CARRIAGE ARE RUST-FREE. THIS CAR HAS HAD ONE REPAINT THAT LOOKS GREAT WITH MINIMAL FLAWS. THE 4. 8L. V-12 ENGINE PRODUCES 311 HP. IT IS EQUIPPED WITH 6 WEBER CARBURETORS. THIS ENGINE AND CARBURETOR SET UP IS THE SAME AS FERRARI DAYTONA. THIS LUXURY 2+2 TOURING CAR WAS EQUIPPED WITH THE GM TURBO-HYDRAMATIC (TH400) AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION FOR THE USA MARKET. ONLY 502 FERRARI 400'S WERE EVER BUILT. THERE WERE 355 UNITS WITH AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION AND 147 UNITS WITH MANUAL TRANSMISSION. WE HAVE THE OWNER'S MANUAL. SERVICE MANUAL. PARTS MANUAL. TOOLS. AN AFTERMARKET BUT FUNCTIONAL JACK. AND SEVERAL KEYS FOR THE CAR.
WE PURCHASED THIS FERRARI AS PART OF A 3 CAR PACAKGE FROM A SERIOUS CAR COLLECTOR IN CHATTANOOGA TENNESSEE. IT IS A TWO OWNER CAR. THE PREVIOUS OWNER PURCHASED IT ON 5-23-1992 IN TENNESSEE WHERE HE KEPT IT IN A CLIMATE CONTROLLED GARAGE WITH MINIMAL USE. IN FACT. HE JUST REGISTERED THE CAR IN HIS NAME JUST BEFORE THE SALE ( SEE PHOTO OF THE TITLE). WE WERE TOLD THAT HIS PRIVATE MECHANIC KEPT IT UP REGULARLY. WE DON'T HAVE ANY SERVICE RECORDS FOR THE CAR SO PLEASE DON'T ASK ABOUT THEM. IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR AN ORIGINAL 400A THAT LOOKS. RUNS. AND DRIVES GREAT. HIS CAR IS FOR YOU. IT MAY NEED SOME MINOR REPAIRS AND SERVICES. IF YOU ARE ONE OF THOSE FERRARI FANATICS THAT WANTS TO SEE THE ENGINE OUT SERVICE RECORDS AND OTHER DOCUMENTS. THIS CAR IS NOT FOR YOU. THESE CARBURETED V-12 FERRARIS MAY BE SLEEPERS FOR NOW BUT EVENTUALLY THEIR PRICES WILL CLIMBE UP.
PLEASE READ THE DETAILED DESCRIPTION BELOW AND VIEW THE 100 HIGH QUALITY IMAGES BEFORE BIDDING. IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS. PLEASE CALL 404-391-1149 OR EMAIL: yaztec@bellsouth. net.
WE HAVE EARNED OUR (491) POSITIVE FEEDBACKS BY PROVIDING A DETAILED DESCRIPTION FOR EACH LISTING AND CONDUCTING PROPER BUSINESS ON EBAY SINCE 2001.
HERE IS THE DESCRIPTION:
EXTERIOR:
THE BODY PANELS. UNDER-CARRIAGE. INNER FENDERS. SILLS. AND THE TRUNK ARE RUST-FREE. THE BODY PANELS ARE RAZOR STRAIGHT. THE SHUT LINES ARE PERFECT. THIS CAR HAS HAD ONE REPAINT ABOUT 10 YEARS AGO. IT IS VERY GLOSSY WITH SOME MINIMAL FLAWS SUCH AS TINY CHIPS (IE: ONE ABOUT THE SIZE OF HALF OF A DIME ABOVE DRIVER'S DOOR HANDLE). nbsp;AND A FEW ery SMALL STRESS CRACKS AT THE CORNERS ADJACENT TO THE HEADLIGHT OPENINGS. HOOD OPENING. AND ONE ADJACENT TO THE HOOD LOUVER. OVERALL THE PAINT REALLY STANDS OUT. ALL GLASS. TRIM. AND LIGHT LENSES ARE IN GREAT CONDITION. THE WINDOWS ARE TINTED. THE ORIGINAL WHEELS ARE IN GREAT CONDITION WITH SOME MINIMAL CURB RASHES. THE MICHELIN 215/70 VR15 XWX ARE VERY OLD AND DRY BUT STILL RIDE SMOOTH. THEY NEED TO BE REPLACED.
THE EXHAUST SYSTEM IS SOLID AND SOUNDS GREAT.
INTERIOR:
THE LEATHER SEATS ARE IN VERY GOOD AND SOFT CONDITION. THE DRIVER SEAT HAS SOME WEAR ( SEE PHOTO). THE REAR SEATS. DOOR PANELS. DASH. CONSOLE. STEERING WHEEL. HEADLINER. AND THE INSTRUMENT PANELS ARE IN GREAT CONDITION. THE ORIGINAL BLACK CARPETS ARE IN GREAT CONDITION AND ARE PROTECTED WITH A SET OF NEW FLOOR MATS WITH FERRARI LOGOS.
MECHANICAL:
THE ENGINE STARTS RIGHT UP. IT IDLES SMOOTH. RUNS COOL. AND HAS GREAT OIL PRESSURE. IT IS AMAZING THAT A 34 YEAR OLD FERRARI WITH 6 CARBURETOR RUNS SO SMOOTH. THE OIL PRESSURE GAUGE SHOWS 5 kg/cm2 WHILE IDELING AT 1100 RPM ( SEE PHOTO). THERE ARE A FEW DROPS OF OIL BELOW THE ENGINE WHILE PARKED OVERNIGHT. ITS NOT MUCH AND WE ARE NOT WORRY ABOUT IT. THE TH400 AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION SHIFTS SMOOTH. THE BRAKES AND SUSPENSION FUNCTION PROPERLY. WE HAVE ONLY DRIVEN THIS CAR FOR ABOUT 2 MILES AROUND THE BLOCK. THE TIRES ARE VERY OLD AND WE DID NOT WANT TO DRIVE IT AT A HIGH SPEED ON MAIN ROADS. OUR TECHNICIAN JUST REPLACED ALL THE DRIVE BELTS INCLUDING THE 2 A/C BELTS. THIS FERRARI MAY NEED A FRESH SERVICE OR SOME MINOR REPAIRS BUT RUNS AND DRIVES GREAT.
ELECTRICAL:
ALL LIGHTS. TURN SIGNALS. BRAKE LIGHTS. HIDDEN FOG LAMPS. AUGES. HORN. SWITCHES. ETC. FUNCTION PROPERLY. EVEN THE POWER ANTENNA SWITCH WORKS. THE FUEL GAUGE WORKS BUT IT FLOCTUATES AND DOES NOT SHOW THE ACTUAL FUEL IN THE TANK. THIS FERRARI IS EQUIPPED WITH AN A/C SYSTEM WITH SEPARATE CONTROLS FOR THE FRONT AND THE REAR. BOTH CONTOLS WORK AND THE AIR BLOWS COLD FROM THE FRONT AND THE REAR VENTS. THE POWER WINDOW ON THE PASSENGER SIDE IS NOT WORKING. OUR TECHNICIAN REPLACED THE MOTOR. HOWEVER. THE PLASTIC TRANSMISSION GEAR TEETH ARE WORN. IT NEED TO BE REPLACED. THE AFTERMARKET RADIO WORKS OK. SOME OF YOU OLD TIMERS MAY RECOGNIZE THE ESCORT RADAR DETECTOR CONTROL UNIT THAT IS INSTALLED IN THE ASHTRAY. WE DO NOT KNOW IF IT WORKS BUT IT SURE LOOKS COOL.
ENGINE COMPARTMENT:
THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT LOOKS CLEAN AND ORIGINAL BUT NOT DETAILED.
TRUNK:
THE TRUNK LOOKS VERY NICE AND CLEAN. THE CARPETS ARE VERY NICE. THE TRUNK HOUSES THE SPARE TIRE. AN AFTERMARKET JACK. AND THE TOOL KIT. MOST OF THE TOOLS APPEAR TO BE ORIGINAL BUT NOT ALL.
